322. Only the Love, therefore the Mercy, of God the Messiah, brings about and accomplishes Man's resurrection after death, and his being brought to heavenly dwellings

By the Divine mercy of God the Messiah it has also been granted me to learn, and in fact by an experience today, that the Love, consequently the Mercy of God the Messiah toward the human race - in willing to save all and each and draw them from hell into heaven (for love has a power in it that cannot but express itself by a drawing action) and thus join them to Himself in countless different ways - is the one and only cause of man's resurrection. By that same mercy, all and the least things are held together in a heavenly arrangement and form, according to which they come forth in succession [in time], and are kept together [in eternity]. 1747, the 9th day of December.
