Heaven are treated of.


124. Because the Lord is the sun of heaven and everything that is
from Him looks to Him, He is also the common center, the source of
all direction and determination.{1} So, too, all things beneath are
in His presence and under His auspices, both in the heavens and on
the earths.

{Footnote 1} The Lord is the common center to which all things
of heaven turn (n. 3633, 3641).


125. From all this what has been said and shown in previous chapters
about the Lord may now be seen in clearer light, namely:

That He is the God of heaven (n. 2-6).

That it is His Divine that makes heaven (n. 7-12).

That the Lord's Divine in heaven is love to Him and
charity towards the neighbor (n. 13-19).

That there is a correspondence of all things of the world
with heaven, and through heaven with the Lord (n. 87-115).

Also that the sun and moon of the world are
correspondences (n. 105).
