Heaven is present with every man according to his recep- tion of love and faith from the Lord ; and they Avho receive heaven from the Lord during their abode in the world, are admitted into heaven after death, 233. They who receive heaven from the Lord are they who have HEAVENLY DOCTRINE. 43 heaven in them ; for heaven is in man, as the Lord teaches : " Nei- ther shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for the kingdom of God is within you. " Luke, xvii, 21. 234. The abode of heaven in man is in ...his internal part, thus in his willing and tliinking from love and faith, and thence in his ex- ternal, which consists in acting and speaking from love and faith. But heaven is not in man's external without being in his internal; for all h^'pocrites are capable of acting and speaking well, but they are incapable of willing and thinking Avell. 235. On man's entering the other life, which takes place imme- diately after death, it is at once manifest whether heaven is in him or not ; but this is not so manifest while he lives in the world.
