Christ loves his saints

Christ loves all his saints in heaven. His love flows out to his whole church there, and to every individual member of it; and they all with one heart and one soul, without any schism in the body, love their common Redeemer. 

Every heart is wedded to this spiritual husband. All rejoice in him, the angels concurring. 

And the angels and saints all love one another. All that glorious society are sincerely united. 

There is no secret or open enemy among them; not one heart but is full of love, nor one person who is not beloved. As they are all lovely, so all see each other's loveliness with answerable delight and complacence.

Everyone there loves every other inhabitant of heaven whom he sees, and so he is mutually beloved by everyone.
