First Assembly Leader
A wise spirit from the north, sharing their perspective on heavenly joy.
Core Belief
"Heavenly joy is primarily about being admitted into heaven's festivities through divine grace."
Worldview
Heaven is a defined place with a constant succession of pleasures, and admission is the key to experiencing it.
Personality
Analytical, traditional, and focused on the structured aspects of entering heaven.
In Their Own Words
"Heavenly joy and eternal happiness constitute the very life of heaven; so much so that whoever enters heaven, enters, in regard to his life, into its festivities, just as a person admitted to a marriage enters into all the festivities of a marriage."
"When a man therefore is admitted into heaven, he is also admitted into the full enjoyment of all these satisfactions and pleasures, both as to mental perception and bodily sensation."
"Of course heavenly happiness, which is also eternal happiness, consists solely in admission into heaven, and that depends purely on the divine mercy and favor."
