'The LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.'
In the inner worlds or higher Planes a man's spiritual stature is measured by how much of the Light of Divine Love is radiating from his Heart chakra. This determines his spiritual stature in the eyes of God. A spiritual King, or Christ, in the Kingdom of Heaven must have the Christ, or Divine Love, residing permanently in his or her Heart centre. A man may have been a spiritual leader or a priest at the head of his church or religion but if he does not have an open heart centre filled with the Light of Christ, or Divine Love, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of Heaven but he will instead go to a kingdom of lesser light which reflects his own inner light.
In his book 'Heaven and Hell' (p512 vs.587) Emmanuel Swedenborg teaches: "In the farthest reaches [of hell] are people who belonged to the so-called Catholic religious persuasion and who wanted in that context to be worshipped as gods, flaring up therefore with hatred and vengefulness at anyone who did not acknowledge their power over people's souls and over heaven."
