Heaven and Hell # 221
221. DIVINE WORSHIP IN HEAVEN
Divine worship in the heavens is not unlike, in externals, Divine worship on the earth, but in internals it is different. In the heavens, as on earth, there are doctrines, preachings and temples. The Doctrines agree as to essentials, but they are doctrines of more interior wisdom in the higher heavens than in the lower. The Preachings are in accordance with the doctrines, and as they have houses and palaces, (183-190), so they have Temples in which the preaching takes place. Such things exist in the heavens, because the angels are being continually perfected in wisdom and love. For they have, as men have, understanding and will, and both their understanding and their will are capable of being continually perfected, the understanding by means of the truths of intelligence, and the will by means of the goods of love. 1
Poznámky pod čarou:
1. [Swedenborg's footnote] The understanding is receptive of truth, and the will of good (Arcana Coelestia 3623, 6125, 7503, 9300, 9930).
As all things have relation to truth and good, so everything of man's life has relation to understanding and will (Arcana Coelestia 803, 10122).
Angels are perfected to eternity (Arcana Coelestia 4803, 6648).
