138. Those who have not received conscience in this world, cannot receive it in the other life; wherefore, they cannot be saved. The reason is, that they have no plane into which heaven, that is, the Lord through heaven, may flow, and through which He may operate, and so draw them to Himself; for conscience is the plane and receptacle of the influx of heaven.
