AC.459, '천국과 천국 기쁨에 관하여' (AC.449-459)

Concerning Heaven And Heavenly Joy

 

459

There are three heavens: the first is the abode of good spirits; the second, of angelic spirits, and the third, of angels. Spirits, angelic spirits, and angels are all distinguished into the celestial and the spiritual. The celestial are those who through love have received faith from the Lord, like the men of the most ancient church treated of above. The spiritual are those who through knowledges of faith have received charity from the Lord, and who act from what they have received.
