That they also anointed warlike arms,... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ar§ion=779 The Book of the Apocalypse Revealed, Uncovering the Secrets That Were Foretold There and Have Lain Hidden until Now 838 838. Let everyone therefore beware of that heresy, that man is justified by faith without the works of the law; for he who is in it, and does not fully recede from it before the end of life draws near, is consociated after death with infernal genii; for they are the goats of whom the Lord says: Depart from Me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels (Matt.... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ar§ion=838 The Book of the Apocalypse Revealed, Uncovering the Secrets That Were Foretold There and Have Lain Hidden until Now 851 851. This is the first resurrection, signifies that salvation and life eternal is primarily to worship the Lord, and live according to His commandments in the Word, because thereby conjunction is effected with the Lord and consociation with the angels in heaven. The reason why all these things are signified by "This is the first resurrection," is because it follows as a conclusion from w... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ar§ion=851 The Book of the Apocalypse Revealed, Uncovering the Secrets That Were Foretold There and Have Lain Hidden until Now 855 855. And shall reign with Him a thousand years, signifies that they were already in heaven, when the rest, who did not yet live again, that is, receive heavenly life, were in the world of spirits. "To reign with Christ" does not signify to reign with Him, but to be in His kingdom, or in heaven, see above (n. 284, 289). By "a thousand years" is not meant a thousand years, but it... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ar§ion=855 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 341 341.

Concerning justification by faith. The general principles are these. (a) That by the Word and the sacraments the Holy Spirit is given, who effects faith when and where He pleases, in those who hear the Gospel. (b) That contrition, justification by faith, renovation, and good works, follow in order; that they are to be properly distinguished; and that contrition and good works contribute nothin... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=11 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 12 12. Particulars from the Formula Concordiae, concerning justification by faith without the works of the Law. (a) That faith is imputed for justice without works, on account of the merit of Christ which is laid hold of by faith (pp. 78, 79, 80, 584, 689). (b) That charity follows justifying faith, but that faith does not justify as being formed by charity, as the Papists say (pp. 81, 89, 94, 117, 6... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=12 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 18 18. BRIEF ANALYSIS. The churches which by the Reformation separated themselves from the Roman Catholic Church, are from those who call themselves Evangelical and Reformed, likewise Protestants, or from the names of their leaders, Lutherans and Calvinists, among which the church of England holds the middle place. We shall say nothing here of the Greek church, which long ago separated from the... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=18 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 34 34. It is to be observed, that in the Apostles' Creed it is said, "I believe in God the Father, in Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Spirit"; in the Nicene Creed, "I believe in one God, the Father, in one Lord Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Spirit," thus only in one God; but in the Athanasian Creed it is, "In God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit," thus in t... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=34 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 43 43. VIII. And this faith is in God the Savior Jesus Christ which in its simple form is as follows: I. That there is One God in Whom is the Divine Trinity, and He is the Lord Jesus Christ. II. Saving Faith is to believe in Him. III. Evils ought to be shunned, because they are of the devil, and from the devil. IV. Goods ought to be done, because they are of God, and from God. V. And they ought... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=43 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 44 44. BRIEF ANALYSIS. This is the faith of the New Church in its simple form, which will appear more fully in the Appendix, and in its full form in the work itself, in its First Part; where we shall treat of the Lord God the Saviour, and of the Trinity in Him; of love to God, and love towards the neighbor; of faith and its conjunction with those two loves; and also in the other parts, which wi... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=44 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 69 69. That man in his conversion is like a stock, the faith of the present church acknowledges as its natural offspring in these express words.

XXV. The Roman Catholics at this day know nothing of the imputation of the merit of Christ, and of justification by faith therein, into which their church was formerly initiated, because it is entirely concealed under their externals of worship, which are many; for which reason, therefore, if they recede but in part from their externals of worship, and immediately approach God the Savio... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=105 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 107 107. Nevertheless this faith is so far obliterated with the Roman Catholics at this day, that they scarcely know a jot about it; not that it has been reprobated by any papal decree, but because it has been concealed by the externals of worship, which are in general the adoration of Christ's vicar, the invocation of saints, the veneration of images; and moreover by such things as, from being accoun... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=107 True Christian Religion: Containing the Whole Theology of the New Church Predicted by the Lord in Daniel 7:13-14 and Revelation 21:1-2 3 3.

Moreover these two are what are meant in the Word by the name... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=tcr§ion=85 True Christian Religion: Containing the Whole Theology of the New Church Predicted by the Lord in Daniel 7:13-14 and Revelation 21:1-2 109 109. A COROLLARY. All the churches that existed before the Lord's coming were representative churches; and only in shadow could Divine truths be seen by them. But after the Lord's coming into the world a church was established by Him which saw, or rather was able to see, Divine truths in light. The difference is like that between evening and morning; likewise in the Word the state of the chu... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=tcr§ion=109 True Christian Religion: Containing the Whole Theology of the New Church Predicted by the Lord in Daniel 7:13-14 and Revelation 21:1-2 110 110. Let these Memorable Relations be added. First: I once saw in the spiritual world an ignis fatuus in the air with a glow about it, falling toward the earth. It was a meteor, such as the common people call a dragon. I noted the place where it fell; but it disappeared in the twilight before sunrise, as every ignis fatuus does. After dawn I went to the place where I had seen it f... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=tcr§ion=110 True Christian Religion: Containing the Whole Theology of the New Church Predicted by the Lord in Daniel 7:13-14 and Revelation 21:1-2 170 170.
