From the Introduction to Natural Law in the Spiritual World:

The Spiritual World is not only a different world, but a different kind of world, a world arranged on a totally different principle, under a different government scheme …

It is almost singular that the identification of the Laws of the Spiritual World with the Laws of Nature should so long have escaped recognition …

In discussing the relations of the Natural and Spiritual kingdom, it has been all but implied hitherto that the Spiritual Laws were framed originally on the plan of the Natural; and the impression one might receive in studying the two worlds for the first time from the side of analogy would naturally be that the lower world was formed first, as a kind of scaffolding on which the higher and Spiritual should be afterwards raised. Now the exact opposite has been the case. The first in the field was the Spiritual World …

The visible is the ladder up to the invisible; the temporal is but the scaffolding of the eternal. And when the last immaterial souls have climbed through this material to God, the scaffolding shall be taken down, and the earth dissolved with fervent heat – not because it was base, but because its work is done.
