Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 293 293. To the above shall be adjoined two Memorable Relations. The first is this: Once when looking through a window towards the east, I saw seven women sitting on a bed of roses by a fountain, drinking water. I strained my sight to see what they were doing, and the intentness of my gaze affected them; whereupon, one of them by a nod invited me, and I left the house and quickly went to th... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=293 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 294 294. The second Memorable Relation: Some days later I again saw the seven wives in a rose garden, but not in the same one as before. It was a magnificent garden, the like of which I had never seen before. It was round, and the roses there formed a curve like that of a rainbow, the outer circle being formed by roses or flowers of a crimson color, the next inner circle by roses of a golde... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=294 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 308 308. XII. THAT THE MARRIAGE IS TO BE CONSECRATED BY A PRIEST. The reason is because, viewed in themselves, marriages are spiritual and hence holy; for they descend from the heavenly marriage of good and truth, and things conjugial correspond to the Divine marriage of the Lord and the Church. Hence they are from the Lord Himself, and are according to the state of the Church with the contracting par... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=308 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 320 320. III. THAT IN THE CASE OF THOSE WITH WHOM THERE HAD BEEN NO LOVE TRULY CONJUGIAL, THERE IS NOTHING TO PREVENT AND HINDER THEM FROM AGAIN CONTRACTING MATRIMONY. In the case of those with whom there had been no conjugial love, there is no spiritual or internal bond but only a natural or external; and if an internal bond does not hold the external bond in its order and tenor, the latter does not... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=320 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 342 342. IX. THAT THE MOHAMMEDAN HEAVEN IS OUTSIDE THE CHRISTIAN HEAVEN, AND IS DIVIDED INTO TWO HEAVENS, A LOWER AND A HIGHER; AND THAT NO OTHERS ARE ELEVATED INTO THEIR HIGHER HEAVEN SAVE THOSE WHO RENOUNCE CONCUBINES, LIVE WITH ONE WIFE, AND ACKNOWLEDGE OUR LORD, TO WHOM IS GIVEN DOMINION OVER HEAVEN AND EARTH, AS EQUAL WITH GOD THE FATHER. Before anything is said in particular respecting these hea... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=342 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 361 361. The reason why a man is on fire when his love is attacked shall now be disclosed. From its creation, the human form in its inmosts is a form of love and wisdom. In man, all affections of love and thence all perceptions of wisdom are arranged in most perfect order so that together they make a unanimous whole and thus a one. These affections and perceptions are substantiate, substances being th... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=361 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 392 392. V. THAT THIS SPHERE AFFECTS BOTH THE EVIL AND THE GOOD, AND DISPOSES EVERY ONE TO LOVE, PROTECT, AND SUPPORT HIS OFFSPRING FROM HIS OWN LOVE. It is the testimony of experience that the love of infants or storge is equally with the evil as with the good, and likewise with mild beasts and with savage; yea, that with evil men as with savage beasts it is sometimes stronger and more ardent. The re... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=392 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 466 466. IV. THAT IT IS WHOREDOM, AND BY IT THE CONJUGIAL WHICH IS THE PRECIOUS TREASURE* OF CHRISTIAN LIFE, IS DESTROYED. That it is a whoredom more opposed to conjugial love than the common whoredom which is called simple adultery, and that it is the deprivation of all ability and inclination for the conjugial life which is within Christians from birth, can be proved by arguments which are valid bef... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=466 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 494 494. XIV. THAT ADULTERIES OF THE THIRD AND FOURTH DEGREE, WHETHER COMMITTED IN ACT OR NOT, ARE EVILS OF SIN ACCORDING TO THE MEASURE AND QUALITY OF THE UNDERSTANDING AND WILL WITHIN THEM. That adulteries from reason or understanding, being those of the third degree, and adulteries from the will, being those of the fourth degree, are grievous and so are evils of sin according to the quality of the... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=494 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 496 496. There are three degrees of the natural man. In the first degree are those who love only the world, setting their heart upon riches; these properly are meant by the natural. In the second degree are those who love only the delights of the senses, setting their heart upon luxuries and Pleasures of every kind; these properly are meant by the sensual. In the third degree are those who love only t... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=496 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 497 497. XVI. THAT THEY DO THIS TO SUCH AN EXTENT THAT AT LAST THE ADULTERERS CAST OFF ALL THINGS OF THE CHURCH AND RELIGION. That adulterers from purpose and confirmation cast off all things of the church and religion, is because the love of marriage and the love of adultery are opposites (no. 425). The love of marriage acts as one with the church and religion (no. 130 and elsewhere throughout the Fi... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=497 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 532 532. To the above I will add the following Memorable Relation: As to my spirit I was once taken up into the angelic heaven and into one of its societies. Some of the wise men there then came to me and asked, "What news from earth?" I told them: "This is new: The Lord has revealed arcana which surpass in excellence the arcana hitherto revealed from the beginning of the Church."... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=532 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 75 75. Brief Analysis That the successive decline and corruption of the Christian church is foretold and described by the Lord in Matt. 24 may be seen above (n. 73). After having spoken of false prophets that should arise, and of the abomination of desolation wrought by them (verses 11, 15), He says: Then shall be great affliction, such as was not from the beginning of the world unti... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=75 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 109 109. The imputation of the justice or merits of Christ, enters at this day like a soul into the whole system of theology throughout the Reformed Christian world. It is from imputation that faith, which is therein accounted the only means of salvation, is affirmed to be justice before God, see above [n. 11 (d)]; and it is from imputation that man, by means of that faith, is said to be clothed with... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=109 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 110 110. I. That to every one, after death, is imputed the evil in which he is, and in like manner the good. In order to illustrate this with some degree of evidence, it shall be considered under the following distinctions. 1. That every one has his own life. 2. That his own life remains with everyone after death. 3. That to the evil is then imputed the evil of his life, and that to the good is impute... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=110 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 111 111. II. That the induction of the good of one person into another, is impossible. The proof hereof may also appear from the following observations in their order: l. That every man is born in evil. 2. That man is led into good through regeneration by the Lord. 3. That this is effected by faith in the Lord, and by a life according to His commandments. 4. Wherefore the good of one cannot by applica... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=111 The Interaction between Soul and Body That Some Attribute to a Flow of Energy from the Body, Some to a Flow of Energy from the Spirit, and Some to a Preestablished Harmony 11 11. IX. The spiritual clothes itself with the natural, as a man clothes himself with a garment. It is known that in every operation there is an active and a passive; and that from the active alone nothing exists, and nothing from the passive alone. It is the same with the spiritual and the natural; the spiritual, because it is a living force, is active, and the natural,... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=isb§ion=11 The Interaction between Soul and Body That Some Attribute to a Flow of Energy from the Body, Some to a Flow of Energy from the Spirit, and Some to a Preestablished Harmony 15 15. XIII. It is altogether otherwise with beasts. Those who judge from the mere appearance to the senses of the body, conclude that beasts have will and understanding as well as men, and hence that the only distinction is that man can speak, and thus describe what he thinks and desires, while beasts can only express this by sounds. Yet beasts have not will and understand... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=isb§ion=15 The Book of Deuteronomy 9 1 Hear, Israel: you are to pass over the Jordan this day, to go in to dispossess nations greater and mightier than yourself, cities great and fortified up to the sky, 2 a people great and tall, the sons of the Anakim, whom you know, and of whom you have heard say, "Who can stand before the sons of Anak?" http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=deut§ion=9 The Book of Jeremiah 38 1 Shephatiah the son of Mattan, and Gedaliah the son of Pashhur, and Jucal the son of Shelemiah, and Pashhur the son of Malchijah, heard the words that Jeremiah spoke to all the people, saying, 2 Thus says Yahweh, He who remains in this city shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence; but he who goes forth to the... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=jer§ion=38
