The New Jerusalem and Its Heavenly Teaching - From Things Heard from Heaven: Preceded by a Discussion of the New Heaven and the New Earth 305 305. Thus the Lord made His Human Divine. The Human of the Lord is Divine, because it was from the esse of the Father, which was His soul, illustrated by the likeness of a father and children (n. 10269, 10372, 10823). And because it was from the Divine love which was in Him (n. 6872). Every man is such as his love is, and he is his own love (n. 6872, 10177, 10284). The Lord was the Divine love (n.... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=njhd§ion=305 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on the Lord 35 35. vi. By successive steps the Lord put off the human taken from the mother, and put on a Human from the Divine within Him, which is the Divine Human, and is the Son of God. That in the Lord were the Divine and the human, the Divine from Jehovah the Father, and the human from the virgin Mary, is known. Hence He was God and Man, having a Divine essence and a human nature; a Divine essence from the... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ld§ion=35 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on the Lord 46 46. THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THE DIVINE PROCEEDING FROM, THE LORD, AND THIS IS THE LORD HIMSELF. Jesus has said in Matthew: All power [potestas] is given unto Me in heaven and on earth; go ye therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit; teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you; and... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ld§ion=46 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 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on the Lord 64 64. The reason why "Jerusalem" means the church as to doctrine, is that there and at no other place in the land of Canaan were the temple and altar, the offering of sacrifices, and therefore the Divine worship; and for this reason the three yearly feasts were celebrated there, to which every male in the whole country was commanded to go. This is why "Jerusalem" signifies the ch... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ld§ion=64 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 7 7. The distinction between these degrees cannot be known unless correspondence is known. For these three degrees are altogether distinct from each other, like end, cause, and effect, or like prior, posterior, and postreme; yet they make one by correspondences, for the Natural corresponds to the Spiritual, and also to the Celestial. What correspondence is may be seen in Heaven and Hell, where the s... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=7 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 23 23. The reason why, in ancient times, the idolatries of the nations originated from the knowledge of correspondences, was that all things visible on the earth have a correspondence; not only trees, but also beasts and birds of every kind, and likewise fishes, and all other things. The ancients, possessing a knowledge of correspondences, made for themselves images that corresponded to heavenly thin... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=23 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 28 28. The learned reader will comprehend that these three may be called end, cause, and effect; also esse, fieri, and existere;* and that the end is the esse, the cause the fieri, and the effect the existere; consequently, that in every complete thing there is a trine, which is called first, middle, and ultimate; also end, cause, and effect; and also esse, fieri, and existere. When these things are... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=28 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 31 31. It has been said above (n. 6, 19) that there are three senses in the Word; and also that the celestial sense is its first, the spiritual sense its middle, and the natural sense its ultimate sense. From this the rational man may infer that the first of the Word, which is celestial, passes through its middle, which is spiritual, to its ultimate, which is natural; and thus that its ultimate is th... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=31 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 35 35. It has been shown in Doctrine of the Lord (n. 28) that the prophets of the Old Testament represented the Lord in respect to the Word, and thereby signified the doctrine of the church from the Word, and that for this reason they were called "sons of man." From this it follows that by means of the various things they suffered and endured, they represented the violence done by the Jews... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=35 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 47 47. The external things of the Temple at Jerusalem represented external things of the Word, which belong to the sense of its letter. This is because the Temple represented the same as did the Tabernacle, namely, heaven and the church, and consequently the Word. That the Temple at Jerusalem represented the Lord's Divine Human, He Himself teaches in John: Destroy this Temple, and in three... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=47 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 66 66. But this may be illustrated in the first place by comparisons drawn from the three kingdoms of nature: animal, vegetable, and mineral. From the animal kingdom: When the food becomes chyle, the blood vessels extract and call forth from it their blood, the nervous fibers their fluid, and the substances that are the origins of the fibers their animal spirit. From the vegetable kingdom: The tree,... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=66 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 68 68. Another reason why association of man with angels exists by means of the natural or literal sense of the Word is that in every man from creation there are three degrees of life - celestial, spiritual, and natural - but so long as he is in this world he is in the natural, and is at the same time in the spiritual insofar as he is in genuine truths, and in the celestial insofar as he is in a life... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=68 Teachings about Life for the New Jerusalem: Drawn from the Ten Commandments 23 23. From what has been said three things follow: i. If a man wills and does goods before he shuns evils as sins, the goods are not good. ii. If a man thinks and speaks pious things while not shunning evils as sins, the pious things are not pious. iii. If a man knows and is wise in many things, and does not shun evils as sins, he is nevertheless not wise. ... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=lf§ion=23 Teachings about Life for the New Jerusalem: Drawn from the Ten Commandments 55 55. That they were most holy is evident from the fact that Jehovah Himself (that is, the Lord) came down upon Mount Sinai in fire, and with angels, and promulgated them from it by a living voice, and that the people had prepared themselves for three days to see and to hear; that the mountain was fenced about lest anyone should go near it and should die; that neither were the priests nor the elders... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=lf§ion=55 Teachings about Life for the New Jerusalem: Drawn from the Ten Commandments 59 59. What has been said above (n. 51) respecting the promulgation, holiness, and power of that Law, will be found in the following places in the Word: That Jehovah came down on Mount Sinai in fire, and that the mountain smoked and quaked, and that there were thunderings, lightnings, and a thick cloud, and the voice of a trumpet (Exod. 19:16, 18; Deut. 4:11; 5:22-26). That before the d... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=lf§ion=59 Teachings about Life for the New Jerusalem: Drawn from the Ten Commandments 66 66. We read in Mark: That a certain rich man came to Jesus, and asked Him what he should do to inherit eternal life, and that Jesus said to him, Thou knowest the commandments: Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not be a false witness, Thou shalt not defraud, Honor thy father and mother. And he answering said, All these things have I kept fr... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=lf§ion=66 Teachings about Life for the New Jerusalem: Drawn from the Ten Commandments 67 67. IN PROPORTION AS ANYONE SHUNS MURDERS OF EVERY KIND AS SINS, IN THE SAME PROPORTION HE HAS LOVE TOWARD THE NEIGHBOR. "Murders of every kind" include enmity, hatred, and revenge of every kind, which breathe murder, for murder lies hidden in them, like fire in wood underneath the ashes. Infernal fire is nothing else, and this is the origin of the expressions to "kindle with... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=lf§ion=67 Continuation on the Last Judgment and the Spiritual World 13 13. VI. The state of the world and of the church before the Last Judgment was like evening and night, but after it, like morning and day. When the light of truth does not appear, and truth is not received, there is a state of the church in the world like evening and night; that there was a state before the Last Judgment, may appear from what is said above (n. 11); but when the light of truth appea... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=clj§ion=13 Continuation on the Last Judgment and the Spiritual World 49 49. The Dutch adhere more firmly than others to the principles of their religion, nor are they drawn away from them; and if they are convinced that one or another of them is not in agreement, still they do not admit it, but turn themselves back, and remain unmoved. Thus they remove themselves from an interior intuition of truth, for they keep their rational under obedience, in spiritual things. Be... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=clj§ion=49
