Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 488 488. VIII. THAT ADULTERIES OF THE SECOND DEGREE ARE ADULTERIES FROM LUST, WHICH ARE COMMITTED BY THOSE WHO ARE INDEED ABLE TO CONSULT THE UNDERSTANDING, YET, ON ACCOUNT OF CONTINGENT CAUSES, ARE NOT ABLE AT THE TIME. With the man who from natural is becoming spiritual there are two things, commonly called the spirit and the flesh, which in the beginning combat against each other. And since the lov... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=488 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 531 531. VI. THAT IN THE SAME WAY CONJUGIAL LOVE IS IMPUTED TO EACH MAN. There are marriages in which there is no appearance of conjugial love, and yet it is there, and there are marriages in which there is an appearance of conjugial love, and yet it is not there.

The church is consummated by various means, especially by such things as cause falsity to appear to be truth; and when falsity appears to be truth, good that is essentially good, such as is called spiritual good, is no longer possible. The good that is then believed to be good is merely natural good, such as is brought forth by a moral life. The chief cause of the consummation of truth and of... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=tcr§ion=754 True Christian Religion: Containing the Whole Theology of the New Church Predicted by the Lord in Daniel 7:13-14 and Revelation 21:1-2 374 374. (1) Charity is willing well and good works are doing well from willing well. Charity and works are distinct from each other like will and action, or like the mind's affection and the body's operation; consequently like the internal man and the external; and these two are related to each other like cause and effect, since the causes of all things are formed in the internal man, and from this a... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=tcr§ion=374 The Book of Deuteronomy 1 1 These are the words which Moses spoke to all Israel beyond the Jordan in the wilderness, in the Arabah over against Suph, between Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, and Dizahab. 2 It is eleven days' [journey] from Horeb by the way of Mount Seir to Kadesh Barnea. 3 It happened in the fortieth ye... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=deut§ion=1 The Book of Psalms 119 ALEPH1 Blessed are those whose ways are blameless, who walk according to Yahweh's law. 2 Blessed are those who keep his statutes, who seek him with their whole heart. 3 Yes, they do nothing wrong.

Without such a Life, the Word as to the letter is dead. The case in this respect is the same as it is with man, who-as is known in the Christian world-is both internal and external.

So is i... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ac§ion=3 A Disclosure of the Hidden Treasures of Heaven Contained in the Holy Scripture or Word of the Lord, Together with Amazing Things Seen in the World of Spirits and in the Heaven of Angels 1761 1761.
