It is a great mystery that the whole angelic heaven has been so formed as to correspond completely to a Human being, as a whole and as to its single parts, and all its members, and that this greatest Human being was completely corrupted by falls, so that lower things were dominating over higher ones. Thence came the necessity that Jesus Christ should come into the world and should conquer the devil, and thereby restore order, and thus be the One and Only Human Being to whom the Universe related. It is because of this that Jesus Christ is the all in all the parts and that with Him Alone, the angelic heaven interacts; and that the lower and lowest gang has been cast away beneath His feet, like slag or dung. Therefore one who is not in Jesus Christ, or in His Body, is not in heaven. 1748, the 18th day of January.
