Many of them are receptive of truth, and they see justice in reasons, as I was enabled to observe from conversations with them in the spiritual world.

But it is replied, that Christians have this... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=clj§ion=74 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 23 23. THERE IS ONE GOD-MAN, FROM WHOM ALL THINGS COME.

No one is reformed in a state of misfortune, if only then he thinks of God and implores His aid, because this is a state of compulsion; therefore as soon as he comes into a state of freedom he goes back into his former state in which he had thought little or nothing concerning God. It is otherwise with those who had, while in a free state, feared God before misfortune. By fearing God is meant... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=140 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 182 182. III.

Is it anything else or more than a phrase that the common people have picked up from the clergy? Who sees anything of it? Are there not prudence, wisdom, cunning and malice, and are not all things in the world done from these? A... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=182 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 183 183. It does not appear to be likely that if man saw clearly the Divine Providence and its operation he would deny God; for it would appear that if anyone saw it clearly he could not but acknowledge it and thus acknowledge God; yet the contrary is the case.

There are many kinds of profanat... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=231 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 324 324.

In the treatise THE DIVINE LOVE AND WISDOM, Parts Third and Fifth, it is... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=324 The Book of the Apocalypse Revealed, Uncovering the Secrets That Were Foretold There and Have Lain Hidden until Now 44 44.

It is said in the church, that they "crucify the Lord" who blaspheme Him; as do those also who, like the Jews, deny Him to be the Son of God. The reason why they who deny the Lord's Human to be Divine are like the Jews is because every man regards the Lord as a... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ar§ion=504
