Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 580 580. The kind of malice infernal spirits possess is evident from their nefarious arts, which are so many that to enumerate them would fill a volume, and to describe them would fill many volumes. These arts are mostly unknown in the world. One kind relates to abuses of correspondences; a second to abuses of the outmosts of Divine order; a third to the communication and influx of thoughts and affect... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=580 The Last Judgment and Babylon Destroyed, Showing That at This Day All the Predictions of the Book of Revelation Have Been Fulfilled - From Things Heard and Seen 61 61. Destruction was effected after visitation, for visitation always precedes. The act of exploring what the men are, and moreover the separation of the good from the evil, is visitation; and the good are then removed, and the evil are left behind. This having been done, there were great earthquakes, from which they perceived that the Last Judgment was at hand, and trembling seized them all. Then... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=lj§ion=61 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 43 43. That the truths of the Word's sense of the letter are meant by the foundations of the wall of the New Jerusalem (Rev. 21), follows from the fact that the "New Jerusalem" means the New Church as to doctrine (as has been shown in Doctrine of the Lord, n. 62-63); so that its "wall," and the "foundations of the wall," can mean nothing but the external of the Word whic... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=43 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 44 44. The truths and goods of the sense of the letter of the Word are meant by the Urim and Thummim. The Urim and Thummim were on the ephod of Aaron, whose priesthood represented the Lord as to Divine good and as to the work of salvation. The garments of the priesthood or of holiness represented Divine truth from Divine good. The ephod represented Divine truth in its ultimate, thus the Word in the s... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=44 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 51 51. i. The Word cannot be understood without doctrine. This is because the Word in the sense of the letter consists exclusively of correspondences, to the end that things spiritual and celestial may be simultaneous or together therein, and that every word may be their container and support. For this reason, in some places in the sense of the letter the truths are not naked, but clothed, and are th... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=51 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 282 282.

Part Second treated of the spiritual sun and its world, and of the natural sun and its world, and of the creation of the universe with all things thereof from God by means of these two suns. Part Third treated of degrees in whic... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=284 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 136 136. III. NO ONE IS REFORMED BY THREATS AND PUNISHMENTS, BECAUSE THEY COMPEL. It is well known that the external cannot compel the internal, but that the internal can compel the external. It is also well known that the internal is so averse to compulsion by the external that it turns itself away. Further, it is known that external delights allure the internal to consent and love; and it may also b... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=136 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 155 155.

This one sole essence, substance and form, is the Divine Love and the Divine Wisdom, from which are all things relating to love and wisdom in man. It is al... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=157 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 172 172. IN THE DOCTRINE OF THE NEW JERUSALEM CONCERNING THE SACRED SCRIPTURE it was shown that the Lord is the Word, and that all doctrine of the Church is to be drawn from the Word. Now since the Lord is the Word, it follows that the man who is taught from the Word is taught by the Lord alone. As this, however, is not easily comprehended it will be illustrated in the following order: 1. T... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=172 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 215 215. I. TEMPORAL THINGS RELATE TO DIGNITIES AND RICHES, THUS TO HONOURS AND GAIN IN THE WORLD. There are many temporal things, yet they all relate to dignities and riches. By temporal things are meant such as either perish with time, or come to an end with man's life in this world only; but by eternal things are meant those which do not perish and come to an end with time, and therefore do not end... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=215 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 219 219. These points, however, shall be illustrated and established one by one. First: What temporal things are, and what eternal things are.

Things proper to nature are especially spaces and times, both having limit and termination; and things derived from them proper to man are those th... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=219 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 220 220. IV. THE CONJUNCTION OF TEMPORAL AND ETERNAL THINGS IN MAN IS THE DIVINE PROVIDENCE OF THE LORD.

It is from the Divine Providence that... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=220 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 227 227. These are the causes which give rise to such an enormity; but as they are in obscurity because of ignorance respecting them they must be so explained as to make them clear to the understanding. First: Whatever a man thinks, speaks and does from his will, whether good or evil, is appropriated to him, and remains. This was shown above (n. 78-81). For man has an external or natural me... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=227 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 233 233. In order, therefore, that this interior truth (arcanum) of the Divine Providence may be so revealed that the rational man may see it in his own light, the points that have just been presented shall be explained one by one. First: Evil and good cannot exist together in man's interiors, and consequently neither can the falsity of evil and the truth of good. By man's interiors is meant the inter... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=233 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 278 278. II. EVILS CANNOT BE REMOVED UNLESS THEY APPEAR. This does not mean that man is to do evils in order that they may appear, but that he is to examine himself, not his actions only, but also his thoughts, and what he would do if he were not afraid of the laws and disgrace; especially what evils he holds in his spirit to be allowable and does not regard as sins; for these he still commits. In ord... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=278 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 296 296. In order, therefore, that the Divine Providence with the wicked may be clearly seen and thus understood, the propositions stated above now fall to be explained in the order in which they were presented.

This is the case with hatred and revenge, theft and fraud, adultery and who... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=296 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 298 298. In order that these things may be made apparent to the rational man, whether he be a wicked man or a good man, thus whether he be in the light of winter or in the light of summer, for colours appear alike in both, they must be explained in their order. First: One's own intelligence, when the will is in evil, sees nothing but falsity, and has neither the desire nor the ability to se... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=298 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 318 318. But how man's state is changed by the confirmations of falsities and persuasions derived from them will now be explained in the following order: 1.
