225. All the preachers are from the Lord's spiritual kingdom, none from the celestial kingdom. They are from the spiritual kingdom because the angels there are in truths from good, and all the preaching is done from truths. There are no preachers from the celestial kingdom, because those who are there are in the good of love, from which good they see and perceive truths but do not talk about them. Yet although the angels in the celestial kingdom perceive and see truths, still there are preachings there, since by means of them they are enlightened in the truths that they already know and are perfected by many truths that they did not previously know. As soon as they hear truths they acknowledge them and thus perceive them. They also love the truths that they perceive, and by living in accordance with them, they make them to be of their life, declaring that to live in accordance with truths is to love the Lord.# # To love the Lord and the neighbour is to live in accordance with the Lord's commandments (n. 10143, 10153, 10310, 10578, 10645).
