194. [196.] 56 1/2. I have been taken through the societies or dwelling places of heaven and have spoken with many of the inhabitants; and when I came to the dwelling places of the third heaven, which are celestial, I tried then to speak with the inhabitants there about concepts which are called matters of faith and which in themselves are truths. I was surprised to find that they did not wish to make any response to these. They said that they saw all things in themselves from the love that governed them, which was love toward the Lord and mutual love, saying that truths of faith were inscribed on their life, and that they saw them therefore in the light of truth which comes from the Lord, because good has all truth within it. Moreover, what good are concepts if not they do not look to useful ends, they said, and useful ends are goods, and goods are matters of love. I was told that they are of this character because in the world all the truths that they heard they applied to their life. Their whole love and whole faith consists in doing.
