ECCLESIASTICAL and CIVIL GOVERNMENT
(pt. 1)


There are two things which ought to be in order with men, namely, the things which are of heaven, and the things which are of the world. The things which are of heaven are called ecclesiastical, and those which are of the world are called civil.
(The New Jerusalem and Its Heavenly Doctrine 311)
