Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 80 80. IX THERE IS A MARRIAGE OF THE LORD AND THE CHURCH AND A DERIVATIVE MARRIAGE OF GOOD AND TRUTH IN EACH AND EVERY THING OF THE WORD Hitherto this has not been seen, nor could it be seen, because the spiritual sense of the Word has not until now been disclosed, and it cannot be seen except by means of this sense. For in the Word two senses, the spiritual and the celesti... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=80 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 81 81. As there is such a marriage in each and every thing of the Word, there frequently occur in it two expressions that appear like repetitions of the same thing. They however are not repetitions, for one of them has reference to good and the other to truth, and both taken together effect a conjunction of good and truth, and thus form one thing. From this too comes the Divinity of the Word and its... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=81 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 106 106. The greatest light is in this middle region where are the Christians who possess the Word; for light in the heavens is Divine truth that proceeds from the Lord as the sun there; and as the Word is this Divine truth, the light is greatest where dwell those who possess the Word. From this region as from its proper center, the light propagates itself from one compass to another even to the utter... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=106 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 109 109. In this respect a comparison may be made with the heat and light from the sun of this world, which causes vegetation in trees and shrubs even when they are out of its direct rays and under a clouded sky, provided the sun has risen and shown itself in the world. It is the same with the light and heat of heaven from the Lord as the sun, this light being Divine truth, the source of all intellige... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=109 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 114 114. XIV WITHOUT THE WORD NO ONE WOULD HAVE A KNOWLEDGE OF GOD, OF HEAVEN AND HELL, OF A LIFE AFTER DEATH, AND STILL LESS OF THE LORD This follows as a general conclusion from what has been already said and shown; as that the Word is Divine truth itself (n. 1-4); that it is a medium of conjunction with the angels of heaven (n. 62-69); that everywhere in it there is a mar... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=114 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 115 115. But as there are those who maintain, and have confirmed themselves in the opinion, that without a Word it is possible for a man to know of the existence of God, and of heaven and hell, and of all the other things taught by the Word, and as they thereby weaken the authority and holiness of the Word, if not with the lips, yet in the heart, therefore it is not practicable to deal with them from... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=115 Teachings about Life for the New Jerusalem: Drawn from the Ten Commandments 41 41. From all that has been said it is now evident that he who shuns evils as sins, loves truths and longs for them; and that the more he shuns them, so much the more love and longing does he feel, because so much the more he is in good. The result is that he comes into the heavenly marriage, which is the marriage of good and truth, in which is heaven, and in which must be the church. ... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=lf§ion=41 Teachings about Life for the New Jerusalem: Drawn from the Ten Commandments 69 69. As the kinds of murder mentioned above lie inwardly hidden in man from his birth, as has been said, and at the same time thefts of every kind, and false witness of every kind, together with the concupiscences for them (of which we shall speak farther on), it is evident that unless the Lord provided means of reformation, a man must perish everlastingly. The means of reformation provided by the... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=lf§ion=69 Teachings about Life for the New Jerusalem: Drawn from the Ten Commandments 70 70. Now as evil and good are two opposite things, precisely as are hell and heaven, or as are the devil and the Lord, it follows that if a man shuns evil as sin, he comes into the good that is opposite to the evil. The good opposite to the evil that is meant by "murder," is the good of love toward the neighbor. ... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=lf§ion=70 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Faith 36 36. The Universal of the Christian Faith on the part of man is that he believe in the Lord, for through believing in Him there is effected conjunction with Him, by which comes salvation. To believe in Him is to have confidence that He will save, and as no one can have this confidence except one who lives aright, therefore this also is meant by believing in Him. ... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=fa§ion=36 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Faith 63 63. i. That those who are in faith separated from charity are meant in the Word by "goats," shown from experience in the spiritual world. In the spiritual world there appear all things that are in the natural world. There appear houses and palaces. There appear paradises and gardens, and in them trees of every kind. There appear fields and meadowland, plains and grassy swards, flocks and... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=fa§ion=63 Continuation on the Last Judgment and the Spiritual World 3 3. It is a common opinion in the Christian world, that the whole heaven we see, and the whole earth inhabited by men will perish at the day of the Last Judgment, and that a new heaven and a new earth will exist in their places; that the souls of men will then receive their bodies, and that man will thus again be man as before. This opinion has become a matter of faith, because the Word has not bee... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=clj§ion=3 Continuation on the Last Judgment and the Spiritual World 11 11. III. Before the Last Judgment was effected upon them, much of the communication between heaven and the world, thus between the Lord and the church, was intercepted. All enlightenment comes to man from the Lord through heaven, and it enters by an internal way. So long as there were congregations of such spirits between heaven and the world, or between the Lord and the church, man could not be e... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=clj§ion=11 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 22 22. That in God-Man infinite things are one distinctly, can also be seen, as in a mirror, from man. In man there are many and numberless things, as said above; but still man feels them all as one. From sensation he knows nothing of his brains, of his heart and lungs, of his liver, spleen, and pancreas; or of the numberless things in his eyes, ears, tongue, stomach, generative organs, and the remai... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=22 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 56 56. Every created thing, by virtue of this origin, is such in its nature as to be a recipient of God, not by continuity, but by contiguity. By the latter and not the former comes its capacity for conjunction. For having been created in God from God, it is adapted to conjunction; and because it has been so created, it is an analogue, and through such conjunction it is like an image of God in a mirr... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=56 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 68 68. Of the elevation of the interiors of man, which belong to his mind, this also should be known. In everything created by God there is reaction. In Life alone there is action; reaction is caused by the action of Life. Because reaction takes place when any created thing is acted upon, it appears as if it belonged to what is created. Thus in man it appears as if the reaction were his, because he h... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=68 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 69 69. THE DIVINE, APART FROM SPACE, FILLS ALL SPACES OF THE UNIVERSE. There are two things proper to nature - space and time. From these man in the natural world forms the ideas of his thought, and thereby his understanding. If he remains in these ideas, and does not raise his mind above them, he is in no wise able to perceive things spiritual and Divine, for these he involves in ideas drawn f... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=69 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 74 74. From the above it can be seen that time makes one with thought from affection; for from that is the quality of man's state. And with progressions of time, in the spiritual world, distances in progress through space coincide; as may be shown from many things. For instance, in the spiritual world ways are actually shortened or are lengthened in accordance with the longings that are of thought fr... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=74 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 116 116. It shall now be explained how it comes that an angel perceives and feels as his, and thus receives and retains that which yet is not his; for, as was said above, an angel is not an angel from what is his, but from those things which he has from the Lord. The essence of the matter is this:- Every angel has freedom and rationality; these two he has to the end that he may be capable of receiving... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=116 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 125 125. As the quarters are various receptions of love and wisdom by angels, the variety from which that appearance springs shall now be explained. The Lord is in the angel, and the angel in the Lord (as was shown in a preceding article). But on account of the appearance that the Lord as a sun is outside of the angel, there is also the appearance that the Lord sees him from the sun, and that he sees... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=125
