The Lord said above, "I,... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ar§ion=960 The Book of the Apocalypse Revealed, Uncovering the Secrets That Were Foretold There and Have Lain Hidden until Now 645 645. Crying with a great voice to Him that sat on the cloud, send Thy sickle and reap; for the hour has come for Thee to reap, for the harvest of the earth is dried up, signifies the supplication of the angels of heaven to the Lord, that He would make an end, and execute judgment, because now is the last state of the church.

PRELIMINARIES CONCERNING THE JOYS OF HEAVEN AND CONCERNING WEDDINGS THERE I foresee that many who read the things which follow, and the Memorable Relations at the end of the chapters, will think that they are inventions of the imagination; but I asseverate in truth that they are not inventions but are things actually done and seen; nor were they seen in any state of a mind a... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=1 The Book of the Apocalypse Revealed, Uncovering the Secrets That Were Foretold There and Have Lain Hidden until Now 707 707.

That by "Gog and Magog" are signified they who are in external worship and not in any internal worship, may appear in Ezekiel from chap. xxxviii., where it treats of Gog from beginning to end; and from chap. xxxix. there (vers. 1-16); but that these are signified by "Gog and Magog" does not clearly appear there, except from the spiritual sense; which because it has been di... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ar§ion=859 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 39 39. V. THESE STATEMENTS FULLY CONFIRMED BY OCULAR EXPERIENCE. That man lives as a man after death, that the male is then a male and the female a female, and that with every one his own love remains and especially love of the sex and conjugial love, are propositions which I have thus far sought to confirm by considerations such as belong to the understanding and are called rational. But because in... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=39 The Book of the Apocalypse Revealed, Uncovering the Secrets That Were Foretold There and Have Lain Hidden until Now 878 878.

I know that few will acknowledge that all joys and delights from the first to the last are gathered into conjugial love, because, as explained and confirmed above (nos. 58, 59), the love truly conjugial into which they are gathered is at this day so rare that it is not known what it is and scarcely that it is, and these joys and delights are present in no other conjugial love than that which i... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=69 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 70 70. VII. BUT THAT NO OTHERS COME INTO THIS LOVE AND CAN BE IN IT SAVE THOSE WHO APPROACH THE LORD, LOVE THE TRUTHS OF THE CHURCH AND DO ITS GOODS. The reason why no others come into that love save those who approach the Lord, is because monogamous marriages, or marriages of one man with one wife, correspond to the marriage of the Lord and the Church, and because their origin is the marriage of goo... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=70 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 73 73. VIII. THAT THIS LOVE WAS THE LOVE OF LOVES WITH THE ANCIENTS WHO LIVED IN THE GOLDEN, SILVER, AND COPPER AGES. That conjugial love was the love of loves with the most ancient and ancient peoples who lived in the primitive ages which are so named, cannot be learned from history because their writings are not extant, and the writings that are extant are by writers posterior to those ages, it bei... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=73 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 166 166. VIII. THAT WITH THIS CONJUNCTION AS AN END, THE WIFE IS GIVEN A PERCEPTION OF THE AFFECTIONS OF THE HUSBAND AND ALSO THE HIGHEST PRUDENCE IN MODERATING THEM. That wives know the affections of their husbands, and that they prudently moderate them, is also among the arcana of conjugial love stored up with wives. They know them by three senses, sight, hearing, and touch; and they moderate them a... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=166 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 169 169. XI. THAT [FROM HER LOVE], THE WIFE IS CONTINUALLY THINKING ABOUT THE INCLINATION OF THE MAN TO HERSELF WITH THE PURPOSE OF CONJOINING HIM TO HERSELF; [NOT SO THE MAN.] This coheres with what was previously explained [no. 160], namely, that the inclination to unite the man to herself is constant and perpetual with the wife, but inconstant and alternating with the man. From this it follows, tha... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=169 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 211 211. II. THAT WITH THOSE WHO ARE IN LOVE TRULY CONJUGIAL, THE FACULTY OF BECOMING WISE INCREASES, BUT WITH THOSE WHO ARE NOT IN CONJUGIAL LOVE IT DECREASES. That the faculty of becoming wise increases with those who are in love truly conjugial is because with married partners, as shown with abundant reasons in the preceding chapters, this love is from wisdom and according to it. Moreover, because... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=211 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 258 258. XXII. THAT OF THE ACCIDENTAL CAUSES OF COLD,THE THIRD IS AFFIRMATION BY THE WIFE AND TALK BY HER ABOUT LOVE. With angels in heaven, there is no refusal and resistance on the part of wives as there is with some wives on earth. Moreover, with angels in heaven, there is talk about love by wives and not such silence as obtains with some wives on earth. To present the causes of these diversities d... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=258 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 311 311. XV. THAT THIS IS THE ORDER OF CONJUGIAL LOVE,WITH ITS MODES, FROM ITS FIRST HEAT TO ITS FIRST TORCH. It is said, from its first heat to its first torch because vital heat is love, and conjugial heat or love increases more and more, and finally as though to a flame or torch. It is said to the first torch, because what is meant is the first state after the wedding when the love is ardent. What... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=311 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 337 337. IV. CONSEQUENTLY, THAT LOVE TRULY CONJUGIAL IS NOT POSSIBLE EXCEPT WITH THOSE WHO ARE OF THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH. That there is no conjugial love such as is described in its special chapter (nos. 57-73) and in the chapters that follow it, thus such as it is in its essence, save with those who are of the Christian Church, is because that love is from the Lord alone, and nowhere else is the Lord s... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=337
