The Place where Spirits of Poor Men are Welcomed
According to various people with psychic power who can communicate with spirits living in the afterworld or the spirit world, spirits of all dead men are allowed to enter into the spirt world unconditionally after their death but are required to educate and train themselves to ascend to higher levels in the spirit world so as to get closer to the God, which was however not told by Christ Jesus.
According to various people with psychic power, there are some levels and hierarchy in the spirit world. At the lowest, spirits of evil men go and live doing the same evil things as those they did while living in the material world. At the highest, the God lives surrounded by the highest angels. And, each spirit of dead men wants to live as close as the God, so that it is required to enhance its mind of each spirit to be allowed to ascend the levels step by step.
However, wisdom and knowledge held by spirits who were scholars, professors, church leaders, etc. are useless in the spirit world, according to Swedenborg. Their wisdom and knowledge are not rooted in their inner minds but are only related to the outer material world. Wisdom and knowledge effective in the afterlife or the spirit world should be all based on love to the God and neighbors.
Therefore, spirits who love the God would spontaneously ascend the spiritual levels to get closer to the God as much as possible. Spirits who love Satan would run away from light of the God as much as possible so as to hide in deeper levels, which should be called the hell.
Put simply, structure of the afterlife or the spirit world was not mentioned by Christ Jesus, except that there are Heaven and the hell, but it is the place where spirits of poor men are welcomed, consoled, and made happy after death in this material world.

Luke 10, King James Version
25 And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?
26 He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?
27 And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.
28 And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.
29 But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour?
