The Lord created us to be separate from Himself, so that He could love us. He thus allows us to act contrary to His will -- to want what is evil and to believe what is false. When we accept the Lord, though -- by learning what's true and determining to live according to it -- we can let Him place inside us a love for what is good. That is our "inheritance.

10668. 'And on the seventh day you shall rest' means the second state of regeneration, when a person is governed by good and at this stage experiences peace. This is clear from the meaning of 'the seventh day', which is called the day of rest or the sabbath, as the second state of regeneration, when a person is governed by good and at this stage experiences peace, when also he is in heaven with the Lord, dealt with in 8494, 8495, 8510, 8890, 8893, 9274, 9431, 10356, 10360, 10367, 10374.
