GESTURES.—­In the spiritual world the internal affections appear even in the gestures, 273.

GIANTS, abode of, 77.

GLAND, pineal, 315.

GLORIFICATION of the Lord by the angels of the heavens on account of his coming, 81.

GLORIFYING, by, God is meant the discharging of all the duties of our callings with faithfulness, sincerity, and diligence; hereby God is glorified, as well as by acts of worship at stated times, succeeding these duties, 9.

GLORY, the, of the love of self, elevates the understanding even into the light of heaven, 269.  The glory of honor with men induces, exalts, and sharpens jealousy, 378.

GOD, the, of heaven is the Lord, 78.  There is only one God, in whom there is a divine trinity, and He is the Lord Jesus Christ, 82, 532.  God is love itself, and wisdom itself, 132.  The esse of the substance of God is divine good, and the existere of His substance is divine truth, 115.  See Lord, obs.

GOOD and TRUTH.—­What the will loves and does is called good, and what the understanding perceives and thinks is called true, 490.  All those things which pertain to the love are called good, and all those things which pertain to wisdom are called truths, 60.  All things in the universe have relation to good and truth, 60.  Good and truth are the universals of creation, and thence are in all created things, 84.  Good has relation to love, and truth to wisdom, 84.  By truths, man has understanding, perception, and all thought; and by goods, love, charity, and all affection, 121.  Man receives truth as his own, and appropriates it as his own, for he thinks what is true as from himself, 122; but he cannot take good as of himself, it being no object of his sight, 123.  The truth of faith constitutes the Lord’s presence, and the good of life according to the truths of faith constitutes conjunction with Him, 72.  The truth of faith constitutes the Lord’s presence, because it relates to light; and the good of life constitutes conjunction, because it relates to heat, 72.  In all things in the universe, good is conjoined with truth, and truth with good, 60.  There is not any truth without good, nor good without truth, 87.  Good is not good, only so far as it is united with truth; and truth is not truth, only so far as it is united with good, 87.  Relations of good and truth to their objects, and their conjunction with them, 87.  The good which joins itself with the truth belonging to the man is from the Lord immediately, but the good of the wife, which joins itself with the truth belonging to the man, is from the Lord mediately through the wife, 100.  See Marriage of Good and Truth.

GOVERNMENT.—­In heaven there are governments and forms of government, 7.

GOVERNMENTS.—­There are in heaven, as on the earths, distinctions of dignity and governments, 7.

GRAPES, good, and bad grapes, what they represent in the spiritual world, 294, 76.
