388. There are many services in the heavens just as there are on earth, since there are ecclesiastical, civic, and domestic affairs there. The existence of the ecclesiastical ones follows from what was presented above about divine worship in 221-227, the existence of civic ones from what was presented about forms of government in heaven in 213-220, while the existence of domestic ones follows from the material on angels' homes and houses (183-190) and on marriages in heaven (366-386). We can therefore see that the roles and services in any given heavenly community are multiple.
