Thereby truth is
planted in service, so much so that the truths which angelic spirits
learn, are truths of use. Thus are they instructed and prepared for
heaven.
--_Heaven and Hell, nn._ 512, 517
HEAVEN
"Blessed are they that do His commandments, that they may
have right to the tree of life; and may enter in through the
gates into the city."
--_Rev_., XXII, 14
"Thou wilt show me the path of life; In Thy presence is
fulness of joy; At Thy right hand there are pleasures
forevermore."
--_Psalm_, XVI, 11
"THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS WITHIN YOU"
Heaven is in a man; and they who have heaven within themselves, come
into heaven. Heaven in a man is to acknowledge the Divine, and to be
led by the Divine.
Every angel receives the heaven which is around him according to the
heaven which is within him. Unless heaven is within a man, none of the
heaven around him flows in and is received.
Love to the Lord is the love regnant in the heavens; for there the
Lord is loved above all things.
