Will we work in eternity?

In the heavenly world there are homes and employments similar to those of earth—

Yes, spirits have all these things here in the spheres. There is not a trade, art or employment of earth that they do not have here—with this difference, they do not work with the hands, but with the mind, the thought, the spirit, and these thoughts take on tangible shape and are clothed with sublimated or spiritual substance.

We advise to pluck the beam from your own eyes before looking for the mote in your brother's eyes.

How then do they build these homes and shining cities? 

Spirits build their homes and shining cities within the mind. Thoughts are things and go forth from the mind and from the desire of the mind—or rather, the force or will power exercised, they are clothed with sublimated material and become real. 

All things, except natural things, must first exist in the mind or thought to be clothed upon by material or spiritual substance.

Now the more perfect and beautiful their thoughts, the more beautiful their houses or homes, the more perfect they are, the more perfect their surroundings, and thus it is.

How sublime, beautiful and true, a house not made with hands, eternal, and in the heavens.
