AR 629
. . . every truth, from which the church is a church, is from the Word . . .
. . . and that the church is from the Word,
and its quality is according to its understanding of the Word . . .
. . . because the angels of heaven perceive by "glory"
nothing else than the Divine truth,
and because all Divine truth is from the Lord,
by "giving glory to Him,"
they perceive to acknowledge and confess that all truth is from Him.
For all glory in the heavens is from no other source,
and so far as a society of heaven is in the Divine truth,
so far all things there are resplendent,
and so far the angels are in the splendor of glory.
