主已经向最古老的教会的人（亚当）展示了他们天国的灵性礼物，他们对主的爱的状态。他向他们展示了爱的情感（田野的野兽），灵感的思想（空中的飞鸟）和充满他们精神存在的生命（活物）。人们认识到这些东西的性质，以及它们来自何处（他们给它们起了名字）。

但这是不够的。人们想要领导自己，感受属于自己的生活。他们不想再处于最高的天人合一状态。

3883. THE GRAND MAN AND CORRESPONDENCE - continued IN THIS SECTION THE CORRESPONDENCE WITH THE HEART AND LUNGS

What the Grand Man is, and what correspondence with it is, has been stated already. The Grand Man consists in heaven in its entirety, which in general is a likeness and image of the Lord. Correspondence is a correspondence of the Lord's Divine with the celestial and spiritual things of heaven, and of those celestial and spiritual things of heaven with natural things in the world, primarily those in man. Thus there exists, by means of heaven or the Grand Man, a correspondence of the Lord's Divine with man and every individual part of him, so much so that man comes into being from that correspondence and is all the time coming into being, that is, is kept in being, from it.
