116. I spoke with angels about these mutual and reciprocal feelings and it was described how the image of one is in the other's mind and that thus they cohabit not only in single acts but also in the inmost things of life; and the Divine Love of the Lord can flow into such a one with blessedness and happiness. They said too that those who lived in the world in such conjugial love are together and cohabit in heaven as angels; [sometimes] together with their children; but that there are very few from Christian countries today, but all from the Most Ancient Church, which was celestial, and many from the Ancient Church, which was spiritual.
