117. I was told that the merely universal kinds of celestial and thence of spiritual happiness are infinite in number and ineffable, and hardly any of them are known in Christian countries, because they are not in the marriage of good and truth, nor in love to the Lord. They do not know whence good comes and thus what truth is, neither do they know that the Lord alone is God of the universe.
