322. THAT THE LOVE, THUS THE MERCY, OF GOD MESSIAH ALONE ACTS AND EFFECTS THAT MAN RISES AGAIN AFTER DEATH, AND IS LED TO THE HEAVENLY DWELLING PLACES By the Divine mercy of God Messiah it has also been granted me to know, and today indeed by experience, that the one and only cause of man's resurrection is the love, consequently the mercy of God Messiah towards the human race - that He wills to save each and every one and to draw them away from hell into heaven and so to conjunction, which is effected by modes indefinite. For love has in itself such efficacy that it cannot otherwise be expressed than as an attraction. By the same mercy also, each and all things are held together in connection, in a heavenly order and form, so that they may come into existence successively. 1747, Dec. 9.
