Teachings about Life for the New Jerusalem: Drawn from the Ten Commandments 92 92. NO ONE CAN SHUN EVILS AS SINS SO AS TO BE INWARDLY AVERSE TO THEM EXCEPT BY MEANS OF COMBATS AGAINST THEM. Everybody knows from the Word and from doctrine drawn from it that the Own* of man is evil from his birth, and that this is the reason why from inborn concupiscence he loves evils and is drawn into them. This is why he desires to have revenge, and to commit fraud, defamation, and ad... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=lf§ion=92 Teachings about Life for the New Jerusalem: Drawn from the Ten Commandments 100 100. These battlings, which are temptations, may be seen specially treated of in the Doctrine of the New Jerusalem, published in London in the year 1758 (from n. 187 to n. 201): Whence and what they are (n. 196, 197) How and where they take place (n. 198) What good they effect (n. 199) That the Lord fights for man (n. 200): Concerning the Lord's battlings or temptations (n. 201). ... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=lf§ion=100 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Faith 25 25. THE KNOWLEDGES [COGNITIONES] OF TRUTH AND OF GOOD ARE NOT MATTERS OF REAL BELIEF [FIDEI] UNTIL THE MAN IS IN CHARITY, BUT ARE THE STOREHOUSE OF MATERIAL OUT OF WHICH THE FAITH OF CHARITY CAN BE FORMED. From his earliest childhood man has the affection of knowing, which leads him to learn many things that will be of use to him, and many that will be of no use. While he is growing into man... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=fa§ion=25 Continuation on the Last Judgment and the Spiritual World 77 77. When I spoke with the Africans in the spiritual world, they appeared in striped garments of linen: they said that such garments correspond to them, and that their women have striped garments of silk. Of their little children, they related, that they frequently ask their nurses for food, saying that they are hungry, and when food is set before them, they examine and taste whether it agrees with... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=clj§ion=77 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 2 2. What the life of man is, no one knows unless he knows that it is love. If this is not known, one person may believe that man's life is nothing but perceiving with the senses and acting, and another that it is merely thinking; and yet thought is the first effect of life, and sensation and action are the second effect of life. Thought is here said to be the first effect of life, yet there is thou... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=2 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 154 154. The universe and all things thereof were created by the Lord, the sun of the spiritual world serving as a medium, because that sun is the first proceeding of Divine Love and Divine Wisdom, and from Divine Love and Divine Wisdom all things are (as was pointed out above, n. 52-82). In every thing created, greatest as well as least, there are these three, end, cause and effect. A created thing i... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=154 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 167 167. THE END OF CREATION HAS FORM [existat] IN OUTMOSTS, WHICH END IS THAT ALL THINGS MAY RETURN TO THE CREATOR AND THAT THERE MAY BE CONJUNCTION. In the first place, something shall be said about ends. There are three things that follow in order, called first end, middle end, and last end; they are also called end, cause, and effect. These three must be together in every thing, that it may... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=167 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 168 168. It must be known further, that the end is everything in the cause, and also everything in the effect; from this it is that end, cause, and effect, are called first end, middle end, and last end. But that the end may be everything in the cause, there must be something from the end [in the cause] wherein the end shall be; and that the end may be everything in the effect, there must be something... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=168 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 169 169. These three, namely, end, cause, and effect, are in the created universe, both in its greatest and least parts. They are in the greatest and least parts of the created universe, because they are in God the Creator, who is the Lord from eternity. But since He is Infinite, and in the Infinite in finite things are one distinctly (as was shown above, n. 17-22), therefore also these three in Him,... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=169 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 171 171. To this last end creation progresses continually, through these three, namely, end, cause, and effect, because these three are in the Lord the Creator (as was said just above); and the Divine apart from space is in all space (n. 69-72); and is the same in things greatest and least (77 - 82); from which it is evident that the created universe, in its general progression to its last end, is rel... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=171 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 172 172. That these three, end, cause, and effect, are in each and every thing created, can also be seen from this, that all effects, which are called last ends, become anew first ends in uninterrupted succession from the First, who is the Lord the Creator, even to the last end, which is the conjunction of man with Him. That all last ends become anew first ends is plain from this, that there can be no... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=172 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 184 184. DEGREES ARE OF A TWOFOLD KIND, DEGREES OF HEIGHT AND DEGREES OF BREADTH. A knowledge of degrees is like a key to lay open the causes of things, and to give entrance into them. Without this knowledge, scarcely anything of cause can be known; for without it, the objects and subjects of both worlds seem to have but a single meaning, as if there were nothing in them beyond that which meets... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=184 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 185 185. Each and all things that have existence in the spiritual world and in the natural world, have conjoint existence from discrete degrees and from continuous degrees together, that is, from degrees of height and from degrees of breadth. The dimension which consists of discrete degrees is called height, and the dimension that consists of continuous degrees is called breadth; their position relati... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=185 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 189 189. DEGREES OF HEIGHT ARE HOMOGENEOUS, AND ONE IS FROM THE OTHER IN SUCCESSION LIKE END, CAUSE, AND EFFECT. As degrees of breadth, that is continuous degrees, are like gradations from light to shade, from heat to cold, from hard to soft, from dense to rare, from thick to thin, and so forth; and as these degrees are known from sensuous and ocular experience, while degrees of height, or discr... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=189 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 193 193. That these things in their order are like ends, causes, and effects, is evident; for the first, which is the least, effectuates its cause by means of the middle, and its effect by means of the last. ... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=193 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 197 197. This can be applied to all those things which have been enumerated in the preceding chapter, to the muscles, the nerves, the matters and parts of both the vegetable and mineral kingdoms, to the organic substances that are the subjects of thoughts and affections in man, to atmospheres, to heat and light, and to love and wisdom. In all these, the first is singly supreme in the subsequent things... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=197 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 199 199. ALL PERFECTIONS INCREASE AND ASCEND ALONG WITH DEGREES AND ACCORDING TO THEM. That degrees are of two kinds, degrees of breadth and degrees of height has been shown above (n. 185-188); also that degrees of breadth are like those of light verging to shade, or of wisdom verging to ignorance; but that degrees of height are like end, cause and effect, or like prior, subsequent and final. Of... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=199 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 208 208. In a word, there are such degrees in every outmost, thus in every effect. For every outmost consists of things prior and these of their firsts. And every effect consists of a cause, and this of an end; and end is the all of cause, and cause is the all of effect (as was shown above); and end makes the inmost, cause the middle, and effect the outmost. The same is true of degrees of love and wis... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=208 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 209 209. THE OUTMOST DEGREE IS THE COMPLEX, CONTAINANT AND BASE OF THE PRIOR DEGREES. The doctrine of degrees which is taught in this Part, has hitherto been illustrated by various things which exist in both worlds; as by the degrees of the heavens where angels dwell, by the degrees of heat and light with them, and by the degrees of atmospheres, and by various things in the human body, and also... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=209 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 212 212. That the outmost degree is the complex, containant, and base of prior degrees, is clearly seen from progression of ends and causes to effects. That the effect is the complex, containant, and base of causes and ends can be comprehended by enlightened reason; but it is not so clear that the end with all things thereof, and the cause with all things thereof, are actually in the effect, and that... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=212
