THE SACRED SCRIPTURE, OR THE WORD
(pt. 3)
Since man lives after death, and then lives to eternity, and a life awaits him according to his love and faith, it follows that the Divine, out of love towards the human race, has revealed such things as may lead to that life, and conduce to man's salvation.
What the Divine has revealed, is with us the Word.
(The New Jerusalem and Its Heavenly Doctrine 251)
