Teachings for the New Jerusalem on the Lord 40 40. iii. That the Lord is called "the Holy One of Israel," is evident from these passages: The angel said to Mary, That Holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God (Luke 1:35). I saw in the visions, and behold, a Watcher and a Holy One came down from heaven (Dan. 4:13, 23). God came from Teman, and the Holy One from Mount Paran (Hab. 3:3). http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ld§ion=40 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on the Lord 49 49. iii. That by "spirit" is meant the life of one who is regenerate, which is called spiritual life: Jesus said, Except a man be born of water and of the spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God (John 3:5). I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit. I will put My spirit within you, and cause you to walk in My statutes (Ezek. 36:26, 27). To give a new hear... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ld§ion=49 Continuation on the Last Judgment and the Spiritual World 74 74. All who acknowledge and worship one God, the Creator of the universe, have concerning Him the idea of Man: they say, that concerning God, no one can have any other idea. When they hear that many cherish the idea of Him as of a small cloud, they inquire where they are, and on being told that they are among Christians, they deny the possibility of it. But it is replied, that Christians have this... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=clj§ion=74 Continuation on the Last Judgment and the Spiritual World 75 75. There are many societies of Gentiles, especially from the Africans, who, on being instructed by the angels concerning the Lord, say that it cannot be otherwise than that God the Creator of the universe should appear in the world, because He created them and loves them; and that the appearance must be made before the very eyes in the Human form. When they are told, that He did not appear as the... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=clj§ion=75 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on the Lord 55 55. THE DOCTRINE OF THE ATHANASIAN CREED AGREES WITH THE TRUTH, PROVIDED THAT BY A TRINITY OF PERSONS IS UNDERSTOOD A TRINITY OF PERSON, AND THAT THIS TRINITY IS IN THE LORD. The recognition by Christians of three Divine Persons, and thus as it were of three Gods, has arisen from there being in the Lord a Trine, one of which is called the Father, the second the Son, and the third the Holy Sp... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ld§ion=55 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 11 11. GOD IS VERY MAN. In all the heavens there is no other idea of God than that He is a Man. This is because heaven as a whole and in part is in form like a man, and because it is the Divine which is with the angels that constitutes heaven and inasmuch as thought proceeds according to the form of heaven, it is impossible for the angels to think of God in any other way. From this it is that a... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=11 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 23 23. THERE IS ONE GOD-MAN, FROM WHOM ALL THINGS COME. All things of human wisdom unite, and as it were center in this, that there is one God, the Creator of the universe: consequently a man who has reason, from the general nature of his understanding, does not and cannot think otherwise. Say to any man of sound reason that there are two Creators of the universe, and you will be sensible of hi... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=23 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 24 24. Every man, even if unconsciously, thinks of a body of men as of one man; therefore he instantly perceives what is meant when it is said that a king is the head, and the subjects are the body, also that this or that person has such a place in the general body, that is, in the kingdom. As it is with the body politic, so is it with the body spiritual. The body spiritual is the church; its head is... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=24 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 33 33. From Divine Love and from Divine Wisdom, which make the very Essence that is God, all affections and thoughts with man have their rise-affections from Divine Love, and thoughts from Divine Wisdom; and each and all things of man are nothing but affection and thought; these two are like fountains of all things of man's life. All the enjoyments and pleasantnesses of his life are from these-enjoym... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=33 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 65 65. THE USES OF ALL CREATED THINGS ASCEND BY DEGREES FROM LAST THINGS TO MAN, AND THROUGH MAN TO GOD THE CREATOR, FROM WHOM THEY ARE. Last things, as was said above, are each and all things of the mineral kingdom, which are materials of various kinds, of a stony, saline, oily, mineral, or metallic nature, covered over with soil formed of vegetable and animal matters reduced to the finest dus... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=65 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 66 66. In the natural world there are three degrees of ascent, and in the spiritual world there are three degrees of ascent. All animals are recipients of life. The more perfect are recipients of the life and the three degrees of the natural world, the less perfect of the life of two degrees of that world, and the imperfect of one of its degrees. But man alone is a recipient of the life both of the t... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=66 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 167 167. THE END OF CREATION HAS FORM [existat] IN OUTMOSTS, WHICH END IS THAT ALL THINGS MAY RETURN TO THE CREATOR AND THAT THERE MAY BE CONJUNCTION. In the first place, something shall be said about ends. There are three things that follow in order, called first end, middle end, and last end; they are also called end, cause, and effect. These three must be together in every thing, that it may... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=167 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 223 223. The statements of angels on this subject are as follows: There can be nothing so minute as not to have in it degrees of both kinds; for instance, there can be nothing so minute in any animal, or in any plant, or in any mineral, or in the ether or air, as not to have in it degrees of both kinds, and since ether and air are receptacles of heat and light, and spiritual heat and spiritual light a... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=223 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 262 262. By virtue of the reaction which is in him from birth the natural mind, or man, when he loves himself and the world above all things, acts against the things that are of the spiritual mind or man. Then also he has a sense of enjoyment in evils of every kind, as adultery, fraud, revenge, blasphemy, and other like things; he then also acknowledges nature as the creator of the universe; and confi... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=262 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 344 344. I heard two presidents of the English Royal Society, Sir Hans Sloane and Martin Folkes, conversing together in the spiritual world about the existence of seeds and eggs, and about productions from them in the earths. The former ascribed them to nature, and contended that nature was endowed from creation with a power and force to produce such effects by means of the sun's heat. The other maint... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=344 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 349 349. THE VISIBLE THINGS IN THE CREATED UNIVERSE BEAR WITNESS THAT NATURE HAS PRODUCED AND DOES PRODUCE NOTHING, BUT THAT THE DIVINE OUT OF ITSELF, AND THROUGH THE SPIRITUAL WORLD, HAS PRODUCED AND DOES PRODUCE ALL THINGS. Speaking from appearances, most men say that the sun by heat and light produces whatever is to be seen in plains, fields, gardens, and forests; also that the sun by its hea... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=349 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 358 358. PART FIFTH. TWO RECEPTACLES AND ABODES FOR HIMSELF, CALLED WILL AND UNDERSTANDING, HAVE BEEN CREATED AND FORMED BY THE LORD IN MAN; THE WILL FOR HIS DIVINE LOVE, AND THE UNDERSTANDING FOR HIS DIVINE WISDOM.

III. THIS ONE IS IN A CERTAIN MANNER IMAGED IN EVERY CREATED THING. From what has been shown throughout the treatise THE DIVINE LOVE AND WISDOM, and especially in n. 47-51, 55-60, 282-284, 290-295, 313-318, 319-326, 349-357, it may appear that the Divine Love and the Divine Wisdom, which are one in the Lord, and which proceed from Him as one, are in a certain manner imaged in every created thin... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=5 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 52 52. II. THE INFINITE AND ETERNAL IN ITSELF CANNOT BUT REGARD WHAT IS INFINITE [AND ETERNAL] FROM ITSELF IN FINITE THINGS. By the Infinite and Eternal in itself is meant the Divine itself as has just been shown in the preceding article; by finite things are meant all things created by the Divine, especially men, spirits and angels; and to regard what is infinite and eternal from Himself is to regar... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=52 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 64 64. V. THE INMOST OF THE DIVINE PROVIDENCE IS TO REGARD WHAT IS INFINITE AND ETERNAL IN FORMING THE ANGELIC HEAVEN, IN ORDER THAT IT MAY BE BEFORE THE LORD AS ONE MAN, THE IMAGE OF HIMSELF. It may be seen in the work HEAVEN AND HELL (n. 59-86) that the universal heaven is as one man before the Lord, and likewise every society in heaven; and that consequently every angel is a man in perfect form, a... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=64
