24. When the congregation was assembled, the priest ascended the pulpit and preached a sermon full of the spirit of wisdom. Its subject was the holiness of the Sacred Scripture, and the conjunction, by its means, of the Lord with both worlds, the spiritual and the natural.

132. To the above, I will add two Memorable Relations. First this: I once conversed with two angels, one from the eastern heaven, the other from the southern heaven.

When I answered, "Not as yet," they...

That by the man's sleep and by his falling asleep is signified h...

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.

Asked why they say the work of nature and not of God, when yet at times they themselves, in common...
