All terrestrial human beings are on their way towards a new sex through which they will come to experience a "new heaven" and a "new Earth" or the "kingdom of heaven" in flesh and blood
1584. The fact that the animal kingdom thus ends by arousing aversion or loathing in terrestrial human beings, and by awakening their interest and longing for the opposite ideals, manifests itself also in the structure of the body. This is shown in the symbol by the figure above the animal kingdom that indicates the line or development of the body. The orange-coloured figure denotes the animal body. Growing out of the last half of the animal kingdom we see a new figure (coloured yellow). This is the beginning of the true or real human bodily structure in which the being gradually, as this structure develops, ceases to be a purely "male" being or a purely "female" being. The bodily structure of the advanced terrestrial human being has thus already ceased to be truly one-hundred-per-cent "male" or truly one-hundred-per-cent "female". All terrestrial human beings are on their way towards the "new sex", which will promote the all-conquering magical power that we know as the "highest fire". This "highest fire" will transform the domain of terrestrial human beings into a "new heaven and new Earth in which righteousness dwells". This in turn means that it will transform the Earth into the scene of a new and, for absolutely all human beings, advantageous social distribution and utilisation of all the Earth's material assets, and the scene for an entirely new spiritual view of Providence or the Godhead through which the beings will come to feel "at one with the Father". This mental domain is the "kingdom of heaven" made manifest on Earth in flesh and blood.
