61. Everything that has to do with cognitions of faith is called spiritual, and everything that has to do with love to the Lord and towards the neighbour is called celestial. The former belong to man's understanding, the latter to his will.

Colossians 1:15-17

Study

  

15 who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation.

16 For by him all things were created, in the heavens and on the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers; all things have been created through him, and for him.

17 He is before all things, and in him all things are held together.
