249 - Newness of Life

Coronis (An Appendix to True Christian Religion) #15
15. That when the Lord Jehovih founds a new heaven and a new Church, He introduces order, so that they may abide under His guidance, and under obedience to Him, to eternity, is because the angelic heaven and the Church on earth together constitute one body, whose Soul and Life is the Lord Jehovih, who is the Lord our Saviour. The universal angelic heaven, together with the Church, also appears before the Lord as one man; and a man abides under the guidance of and obedience to his own soul: consequently, the entire heaven, together with the Church, abides under the guidance of and obedience to the Lord: for the Lord is in them, and they are in the Lord (John 14:20; 15:4-5; 17:23, 26); thus, He is the All in all things there. But the order which the Lord sets up in hell is such that all who are there may be diametrically opposite to all who are in heaven: whence it is evident, that, since the Lord rules heaven He also rules hell, and that He rules the latter by means of the former.
