That wisdom is from good by truths. In what manner the rational is conceived and born with man (n. 2094, 2524, 2557, 3030, 5126).

FROM THE ARCANA COELESTIA. The loves of self and of the world. As love to the Lord and love towards the neighbor, or charity, constitute heaven, so the love of self and the love of the world, where they reign constitute hell; and therefore these loves are opposites (n. 2041, 3610, 4225, 4776, 6210, 7366, 7369, 7489, 7490, 8232, 8678, 10455, 10741-10743, 10745).

As the subject here treated of is the Divinity and holiness of the Word, to what has already been said we may add something worthy of mention. A small piece of paper marked with Hebrew letters, but written as the ancients wrote them, was once sent me from heaven. In those times some of the letters that now are partly formed with straight lines were curved, and had little horns that turned upwa... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=90 Teachings about Life for the New Jerusalem: Drawn from the Ten Commandments 39 39.

From his earliest childhood man has the affection of knowing, which leads him to learn many things that will be of use to him, and many that will be of no use. While he is growing into man... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=fa§ion=25 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Faith 32 32. We will also say how faith is formed from charity.

And because the Lord is uncreate and infinite, He is... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=4
