Claim. We are not saved as individuals — heaven is entered as families and clans, and the religious salvation that pursued individual entry pertained only to the “archangelic world.”

Elaboration. SMM relocates the unit of salvation from individual to family: “We are not saved as individuals. In our life course, we are to love our children from the position of the second creator in the same way that God loved Adam and Eve… Heaven is a place we enter by having perfected ourselves in conformity with the textbook of love. We do not enter it as individuals, but as complete families” (CSG 15.2 §3, 226-307, 1992.2.9). The polemical edge: “The individual salvation that people strove for until now pertained to the archangelic world. Ownership of the true family is in heaven. Heaven is the realm true families can own” (297-165, 1998.11.19). And: “To establish God’s Kingdom there must be a king and a queen who have sons and daughters. There also must be central families that can guard the kingdom… Heaven is not a place you can enter alone” (265-94, 1994.11.20). The salvation unit is structural; it carries the four-position foundation into its eternal destination.
