Briefly stated, the subjects concerning the Lord that are treated of in all the Prophets of the Old Testament, from Isaiah to Malachi, both in general and in particular, are these: i.

Something shall now be said of what is meant by taking away sins. To take away sins means the same as to redeem man, and to save him; for the Lord came into the world to render salvation possible to man. Without His advent no mortal could have been reformed and regenerated, and so saved. But this became possible after the Lord had deprived the devil (that is, hell) of all his power; and had gl... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ld§ion=17 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on the Lord 22 22.

When His Divinit... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ld§ion=22 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on the Lord 26 26.

That the Lord made His Human Divine by means of temptations admitted into Himself, and by means of continual victories in them, has been treated of above, n. 12-14; to which shall be added only this: Temptations are nothing but combats against evils and falsities; and as evils and falsities are from hell, temptations are combats against hell. Moreover with the men who are undergoing spirit... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ld§ion=33 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 116 116. I have been permitted to see peoples who had been born in [remote] islands, who were rational in respect to civil matters, but had known nothing whatever about God. In the spiritual world such appear like apes, and their life is very similar to that of apes. But having been born men, and consequently being endowed with a capacity to receive spiritual life, they are instructed by angels and ar... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=116 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on the Lord 51 51. v.

When He, the Spirit of Truth, is come, He will lead you into all truth. He shall no... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ld§ion=51 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 49 49. So far we have shown that the Word in the natural sense, which is the sense of the letter, is in its holiness and its fullness. Something shall now be said to show that in this sense the Word is also in its power. How great and of what nature is the power of Divine truth in the heavens and also on earth, is evident from what has been said in Heaven and Hell concerning the power of the angels o... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=49 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Faith 35 35. It is said "in the universal idea or form" because this is what is universal of the Faith, and what is universal of the Faith is that which must be in all things of it both in general and in particular. It is a Universal of the Faith that God is One in Person and in Essence, in whom is the Trinity, and that the Lord is that God. It is a Universal of the Faith that no mortal could hav... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=fa§ion=35 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Faith 39 39. But in order that the character of this Faith may be seen more clearly, I will adduce in their order the various things which it maintains. The Faith of the present day maintains that: i.

"My faith is that 'God the Father sent the Son to make satisfaction for mankind, and that they a... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=fa§ion=42 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 337 337. The Divine Providence does all things out of pure Mercy, because the Divine Essence itself is pure Love; and it is this which operates through the Divine Wisdom, and this operation is called the Divine Providence. This pure Love is pure Mercy because: 1. It operates with all men throughout the whole world, who are such that they can do nothing from themselves. 2. It operates equally with the... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=337 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 114 114. IV. EVILS IN THE EXTERNAL, MAN CANNOT BE REMOVED BY THE LORD EXCEPT THROUGH MAN'S INSTRUMENTALITY.

[2] It is said, in a universal idea, because this is the universal of faith, and the univer... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ar§ion=67 The Book of the Apocalypse Revealed, Uncovering the Secrets That Were Foretold There and Have Lain Hidden until Now 150 150. Even as I have received from My Father, signifies that they have this from the Lord, who, when He was in the world procured to Himself all power over the hells, from His Divine which was in Himself.
