"The outer expression used for the Kingdom is heaven; but this is a comparison and similitude, not a reality or fact, for the Kingdom is not a material place, it is sanctified from time and place. It is a spiritual world, a divine world, and the center of the Sovereignty of God; it is freed from the body and that which is corporeal, and it is purified and sanctified from the imaginations of the human world." Some Ans Questions 1908 Page 280 . (83:1)

As "love has no place, but is connected with the heart; so the Kingdom has no place, but is connected with man. Entrance into the Kingdom is... through detachment, through holiness and chastity, through truthfulness, purity, steadfastness, faithfulness, and the sacrifice of life." Since these are the attributes of the Kingdom, he who possesses them "belongs" to this Kingdom. Some Ans Questions 1908 Page 282 . (83:2)
