THE CAUSES OF APPARENT LOVE FRIENDSHIP, AND FAVOR IN MARRIAGES Since the causes of cold and separation have been treated of, it follows in order, that the causes of apparent love, friendship, and favor in marriages should also be treated of; for it is well known that, although at this day cold separates the minds of married partners, they yet dwell together and procreate; and this would... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=271 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 281 281. X. THAT WITH NATURAL MEN THESE CONJUGIAL SIMULATIONS SAVOUR OF PRUDENCE FOR THE SAKE OF VARIOUS CAUSES. Between two married partners of whom one is spiritual and the other natural--by a spiritual man being meant one who loves spiritual things and thus is wise from the Lord, and by a natural, one who loves only natural things and so is wise from himself--when the two are consociated in marriag... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=281 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 348 348. XIII. THAT POLYGAMY IS NOT A SIN WITH THOSE WITH WHOM IT EXISTS FROM RELIGION. Everything which is contrary to religion is thought to be a sin because against God. On the other hand, everything which is in accordance with religion is thought not to be a sin because in accordance with God. And because with the sons of Israel polygamy existed from religion, as likewise it does with Mohammedans... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=348 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 351 351. XV. THAT OF THESE, THOSE ARE SAVED, ALTHOUGH POLYGAMISTS, WHO ACKNOWLEDGE GOD AND FROM RELIGION LIVE ACCORDING TO THE CIVIL LAWS OF JUSTICE. All men throughout the whole globe who acknowledge God and from religion live according to the civil laws of justice are saved. By the civil laws of justice are meant precepts such as are in the Decalogue. These are: That one must not kill, must not comm... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=351 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 380 380. I will add two Memorable Relations. First: I was once in amazement at the vast multitude of men who attribute creation and hence all things under and above the sun to nature. Whenever they see anything, they say, from the acknowledgment of their heart, Is not this the work of nature? Asked why they say the work of nature and not of God, when yet at times they themselves, in common... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=380 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 385 385. THE CONJUNCTION OF CONJUGIAL LOVE WITH THE LOVE OF INFANTS There are indications which show clearly that conjugial love and the love of infants, which is called storge, are conjoined. There are also indications which can induce the belief that they are not conjoined; for there is love of infants with partners who love each other from their heart, and with partners who are discordant in... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=385 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 401 401. The sphere of procreating and of protecting what is procreated has a like progression from end, through cause, into effect. The end there, is the will or love of procreating. The mediate cause through which and into which the end betakes itself is conjugial love. The progressive series of efficient causes is the loving embrace, the conception and gestation of the embryo or fetus to be procrea... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=401 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 439 439. XIV. THAT EACH SPHERE CARRIES WITH IT DELIGHTS, that is to say, each sphere--that of scortatory love which ascends from hell, and that of conjugial love which descends from heaven--affects with its delights the man who receives it. The reason is because the ultimate plane is the same, the plane namely, wherein the delights of each love terminate, where also they are fulfilled and completed, a... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=439 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 444 444. To the above shall be added the following Memorable Relation: After I had finished my meditations on conjugial love and had commenced the meditations on scortatory love, suddenly two angels stood by me and said, "We perceived and understood what you were previously meditating on, but the things on which you are now meditating are beyond us and we do not perceive them. Lay them... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=444 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 498 498. XVII. THAT NEVERTHELESS, LIKE OTHERS, THEY STILL POSSESS HUMAN RATIONALITY. That as to the understanding, the natural, sensual, and corporeal man is equally rational as the spiritual man, was demonstrated before me in the case of those satans and devils spoken of here and there in the Memorable Relations who, by leave, rose up out of hell and conversed with angelic spirits in the world of spi... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=498 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 506 506. THE LUST OF VARIETIES By the lust of varieties is not meant the lust of fornication, treated of in its own chapter. This latter, although wont to be promiscuous and roaming, does not bring in the lust of varieties except when it passes beyond bounds and the fornicator looks to number and from desire boasts thereof. This idea initiates the lust now treated of. But its nature as it progre... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=506 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 511 511. THE LUST OF VIOLATION By the lust of violation is not meant the lust of defloration. The latter lust is the violation of virginities, but not the violation of virgins when done without their consent;* but the lust of violation here treated of recedes in consequence of consent, and is sharpened by refusal. It is a burning desire to violate any woman, whether virgin, widow, or wife, who a... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=511 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 5 5. Concerning Faith, Charity, Good Works and Merits. (a) When the apostle says, that man is justified by faith and freely, these words are to be understood in the sense wherein the Catholic church has uniformly held and expressed them; namely, that we are said to be justified by faith, because faith is the commencement of man's salvation, the foundation and root of all justification, without which... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=5 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 6 6. Concerning Free-will. (a) That free-will is by no means destroyed by Adam's sin, although it is debilitated and warped thereby (Sess. vi. chap. 1). (b) Whosoever shall say that the free-will of man, when moved and stirred up by God, cannot at all cooperate by concurring with God, who stirs it up and calls it, whereby man may dispose and prepare himself to receive the grace of justification; or... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=6 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 13 13. Particulars from Formula Concordiae, Concerning the fruits of faith. (a) That a difference is to be observed between the works of the Law, and the works of the Spirit, and that the works which a regenerate person performs with a free and willing mind are not works of the Law, but works of the Spirit, which are the fruits of faith; because they who are born again are not under the L... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=13 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 14 14. Concerning merits, from the Formula Concordiae. (a) That it is false that our works merit remission of sins; false, that men are accounted just by the justice of reason; and false, that reason of its own strength can love God above all things, and do the law of God (p. 64). (b) That faith does not justify because it is in itself so good a work, and so excellent a virtue, but because it lays ho... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=14 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 25 25. BRIEF ANALYSIS. That the leading reformers, although they separated faith and charity, still adjoined and even conjoined them, but would not admit of their being united into one, so as to be both together saving, is evident from their books, sermons, and declarations; for after they have separated them, they conjoin them, and even express this conjunction in clear terms, and not in such... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=25 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 46 46. BRIEF ANALYSIS. What nation is there in the whole world, which has religion and sound reason, that does not know and believe, that there is one God, and that to do evils is contrary to Him, and that to do goods is with Him, and that man must do this from his soul, from his heart, and from his strength, although they inflow from God, and that herein religion consists? Who therefore does n... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=46 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 55 55. What wise man does not see, that such things enter only into the memory, and not into the understanding above the memory, although they may be confirmed by reasonings from appearances and fallacies below it? for to the human understanding there are two kinds of light, one from heaven, and the other from the world. The light from heaven, which is spiritual, flows into the human mind above the m... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=55 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 72 72. That the church is then at an end, when there are no longer any truths of faith, and thence neither any goods of charity, is self-evident. That falsities of faith extinguish the truths of doctrine, and evils of life burn up the goods of charity, and that where there are falsities of faith, there likewise are evils of life, and that where there are evils of life, there likewise are falsities of... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=72
