Teachings about Life for the New Jerusalem: Drawn from the Ten Commandments 107 107. Unless there were reception by man, and at the same time a taking thought as it were by him, nothing could have been said about faith, for faith is not from man. Without this reception and reciprocality, man would be like chaff in the wind, and would stand as if lifeless, with mouth open, and hands hanging down, awaiting influx, devoid of thought and action in regard to the things that concer... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=lf§ion=107 Continuation on the Last Judgment and the Spiritual World 31 31. I then saw angelic spirits in great numbers rising from below, and elevated into heaven, who were the sheep, there reserved and guarded by the Lord for ages back, lest they should come into the malignant sphere flowing forth from dragonists, and their charity be suffocated. These are they, who are meant in the Word, by "those who went forth from the sepulchers"; also, by "the so... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=clj§ion=31 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 26 26. Because the whole heaven and all things of heaven have relation to one God, angelic speech is such that by a certain unison flowing from the unison of heaven it closes in a single cadence - a proof that it is impossible for the angels to think otherwise than of one God; for speech is from thought. ... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=26 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 106 106. If the sun of the spiritual world did not appear far off from the angels, like the sun of the natural world from men, the whole angelic heaven, and hell under it, and our terraqueous globe under these, would not be under the view, the care, the omnipresence, omniscience, omnipotence, and providence of the Lord; comparatively as the sun of our world, if it were not at such a distance from the... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=106 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 227 227. It is likewise a matter of angelic wisdom that from this similitude between generals and particulars, that is, between things greatest and least in respect to these degrees, comes the perfection of the created universe; for thereby one thing regards another as its like, with which it can be conjoined for every use, and can present every end in effect. ... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=227 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 301 301. It is evident, moreover, from angelic ideas, which are apart from space, that in the created universe nothing lives except God-Man, that is, the Lord, neither is anything moved except by life from Him, nor has being except through the sun from Him; so that it is a truth, that in God we live, and move, and have our being. ... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=301 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 326 326. From all this it can be seen that all things in the universe, viewed from uses, have relation in an image to man, and that this testifies that God is a man. For such things as have been mentioned above take form about the angelic man, not from the angels, but from the Lord through the angels. For they take their form from the influx of the Lord's Divine Love and Divine Wisdom into the angel,... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=326 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 328 328. By man, to whom uses have relation, is meant not alone an individual but an assembly of men, also a society smaller or larger, as a commonwealth, kingdom, or empire, or that largest society, the whole world, for each of these is a man. Likewise in the heavens, the whole angelic heaven is as one man before the Lord, and equally every society of heaven; from this it is that every angel is a man... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=328 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 30 30. The Lord's heaven in the natural world is called the Church; and an angel of this heaven is a man of the Church who is conjoined to the Lord; and after he leaves this world he becomes an angel of the spiritual heaven. From this it is clear that what has been said of the angelic heaven must also be understood of the human heaven that is called the Church. This reciprocal conjunction with the Lo... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=30 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 66 66. From these considerations this interior truth, which may be termed angelic, can in some measure be seen, namely, that every affection of good and at the same time of truth is in its form a man; for whatever proceeds from the Lord is, by its derivation from His Divine Love, an affection of good and, by its derivation from His Divine Wisdom, an affection of truth. The affection of truth which pr... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=66 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 338 338. III. INSTANTANEOUS SALVATION FROM IMMEDIATE MERCY IS IMPOSSIBLE. In what has gone before it was shown that the operation of the Divine Providence for the salvation of man begins at his birth and continues right on to the end of his life, and afterwards to eternity; also that this operation is continually effected through means out of pure mercy. Hence it follows that neither instantaneous sal... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=338 The Book of the Apocalypse Revealed, Uncovering the Secrets That Were Foretold There and Have Lain Hidden until Now 256 256. Revelation 5 1. And I saw in the right hand of Him that sat on the throne, a book written within and on the back, sealed with seven seals. 2. And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a great voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof? 3. And no one in heaven, nor on earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neit... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ar§ion=256 The Book of the Apocalypse Revealed, Uncovering the Secrets That Were Foretold There and Have Lain Hidden until Now 961 961. To this I will add two Relations. The first is this. Once on waking from sleep, I fell into a profound meditation concerning God; and when I looked up, I saw above me in heaven a very bright light in an oval form; and when I fixed my attention on that light, it receded to the sides, and entered into the circumference. And then behold, heaven was opened to me, and I saw some magnificent things... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ar§ion=961 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 156 156. XIV. THAT THE STATE OF MARRIAGE IS TO BE PREFERRED TO THE STATE OF CELIBACY is evident from what has thus far been said concerning marriage and celibacy. That the state of marriage is to be preferred is because this state exists from creation; because its origin is the marriage of good and truth; because its correspondence is with the marriage of the Lord and the Church; because the Church an... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=156 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 183 183. The second Memorable Relation: Seen by me in the eastern quarter was a grove of palm trees and laurels arranged in spiral gyres. I approached it, and entering, walked on its paths which wound around in several spirals. At the end of the windings, I saw a garden which formed the center of the grove. Separating the two was a small bridge, and on it, a gate on the grove side and anoth... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=183 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 207 207. To the above, I will add two Memorable Relations. First: Some time after [the second visit to Parnassus (no. 182)], I looked towards the city Athens, of which something was said in a former Relation (no. 156a), and heard thence an unusual clamor. There was something of laughter in it, in this something of indignation, and in this something of sadness; yet the clamor was not therefore dissonan... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=207 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 461 461. To the above shall be added the following Memorable Relation: I was once speaking with a novitiate spirit who while in the world had meditated much on heaven and hell. By novitiate spirits are meant men recently deceased who, being then spiritual men, are called spirits. As soon as he entered the spiritual world, this novitiate began in like manner to meditate on heaven and hell; a... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=461 True Christian Religion: Containing the Whole Theology of the New Church Predicted by the Lord in Daniel 7:13-14 and Revelation 21:1-2 79 79. Fourth Memorable Relation: Once when I was reflecting upon the creation of the universe, some spirits from the Christian world approached, who had been in their time among the most celebrated philosophers, and had been regarded as wiser than all others; and they said, "We perceive that you are thinking about creation; tell us what your idea is about it." But I r... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=tcr§ion=79 True Christian Religion: Containing the Whole Theology of the New Church Predicted by the Lord in Daniel 7:13-14 and Revelation 21:1-2 461 461. Third Memorable Relation I was once carried away in spirit to the southern quarter of the spiritual world, and into a certain paradise there; and I saw that this paradise excelled all that I had before surveyed. This was because a garden signifies intelligence, and because all those who are pre-eminent in intelligence are conveyed to the south. The garden of Eden, in which were Ada... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=tcr§ion=461 True Christian Religion: Containing the Whole Theology of the New Church Predicted by the Lord in Daniel 7:13-14 and Revelation 21:1-2 570 570. Fourth Memorable Relation: I once talked with a novitiate spirit who, when in the world, had meditated much upon heaven and hell. By novitiate spirits are meant men who have recently died, and who are called spirits because they are then spiritual men. As soon as this spirit entered the spiritual world, he began to meditate in the same manner on heaven and hell, and when thinking a... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=tcr§ion=570
