Concerning Heaven And Heavenly Joy

 

550

Just as in the human body all things both in general and particular contribute to the general and individual uses of all the rest, so is it in the Lord’s kingdom, which is constituted like a man, and in fact is called the grand man. In this way everyone there contributes either more nearly or more remotely, and in many ways, to the happiness of all, and this in accordance with the order instituted and consequently maintained by the Lord alone.
