Swedenborg had just came to my awareness yesterday watching a show on angels. This is the first video that came up and you did an amazing job explaining his description of the afterlife. Thank you for doing this.
Don't listen to the negativity.... I think you are very inspiring and reflect the light and the joy that Jesus came to give us....thank you for your beautiful video....peace...peace...peace
I love your explanation and just by looking at you explain it I feel peace inside and want to learn more about this man and his contribution to our culture, our spirit, our lives.
A radio journalist from Canada called my attention this week to Emanuel Swedenborg's book Heaven & Hell. I had never heard from him. I'm glad to learn about him, and thank you for leading this book club. It's quite inspiring listening to Emanuel's experience with the supernatural realm which in fact should be the most natural thing for us on this side of eternity to experience, since we are spiritual beings.
That's wonderful! Glad you've run into Swedenborg's writings and they're inspiring for you. Also, I appreciate the connection and your willingness to share your experience! I agree that it should probably be more natural for us as spiritual beings, we know that shamans often helped induce spiritual visions with First Nations peoples and that many cultures found it more normal. Peace and blessings to you.
I'm loving this. Thank you so much for sharing! What intrigues me most about you and other Swedenborgians is that you are able to draw comparisons and pair the insights of Swedenborg's writings with modern near-death experiences. This is very much needed in order to gain a true understanding of the spiritual world. Thanks again!
Peace be unto you Brethren I spent two years in that book gently turning me to Christianity I believe in angels. correspondence I have had it I'm a two-time coma Survivor bless you Brazilian
While I've not heard him emdorse or recommend this book personally there are some concepts herein I think are fairly congruent with the basic principles of Divine Love/The Way as taught by AJ Miller. So if you enjoyed this book maybe check that out.
I think you're onto something there! I also think words often do little to express the extent of our emotions, we have to somewhat rely on other's opinions of a word and relating metaphors to help illuminate our meaning.
These experiences where people claim to have gone to Heaven, Hell, or Heaven and Hell are not based of fact. Humans do NOT have a spiritual body but have a natural body,are flesh and blood and cannot enter a spiritual place such as Heaven or Hell as they are not Spiritual beings.They are terrestrial beings. it is after the first resurrection that those who are saved will have their bodies changed and be immortal 1st Corinthians 15:40. 42, 44 and 53 & 54 and be as the Angels of God in Heaven Matthew 22:30. the unsaved at the second resurrection will be judged and undergo a second death according to Revelation 21:8 Verses from the Hebrew-Greek Study Bible King James Version Red Letter Edition Publisher AMG PUBLISHING Whereas Angels are Celestial beings and have a Spiritual body and can reside in Heaven or Hell.1st Corinthians 15:40 As well when one says that Hell is eternal this is not true for Hell is to done away with according to Revelation 20:14. The saved do not go to Heaven and the unsaved are NOT being tormented in Hell and the Spirit/Soul does not leave the body during a supposed Heaven/Hell experience after death as humans do NOT have a Spiritual body and or have the capacity to do this. in Ecclesiastes 9:5 The dead know nothing. .
Interesting, are you sure that no one ever sees the other side? What about near-death experiences? And there are people in the Bible that say that they saw the spiritual realm (John in Revelation). It seems to me that God can show the spiritual realm to anyone God chooses. Thanks for sharing your opinion!
Jesus Christ paid the price for ALL the World's sin, 2 Corinthians 5 19-21kjv. He shed his blood on the Cross for our redemption and for the forgiveness of sins, Ephesians 1 7kjv. All you have to do is believe that Jesus Christ died for your sins, was buried and rose again and you will be saved, 1 Corinthians 15 1-4kjv. You will then be sealed with the Holy Spirit of Promise, Ephesians 1 13-14kjv. Paul is the Apostle to the Gentiles, Romans 11 13kjv, and we refer to Romans to Philemon for our salvation. Please look up rightly dividing the Word of Truth, 2 Timothy 2 15 kjv.

The bible contains too many unfulfilled prophecies, atrocities and silly self contradictions to justify its claim of divine origins. Here are some of the silly biblical self contradictions. 1) Nebuzaradan He came to Jerusalem in the 5th month, 7th day, 2 kings 25:8 He came to jerusalem in the 5th month, 10th day, Jeremiah 52:12 2) Jehoiachin He was 18 years old when he began to reign, he reigned for 3 months, 2 kings 24:8 He was 8 years old when he began to reign, he reigned 3 months and 10 days, 2 chronicles 36:9 3) Ahaziah He was 22 years old when he began to reign, 2 kings 8:26 He was 42 years old when he began to reign, 2 chronicles 22:2 4) Jesus tomb They came to the sepulchre in the first day of the week at the rising of the sun, Mark 16:2 They came to the sepulchre in the first day of the week when it was dark, John 20:1 5) Crucifixion They crucified Jesus in the 3rd hour, Mark 15:25 They crucified Jesus in the 6th hour, John 19: 14-16 6) Huram He cast 2 bronze pillars 18 cubits high and 12 cubits in circumference, 1 kings 7:15 He cast 2 pillars 35 cubits high with a capital 5 cubits high, 2 chronicles 3:15 7) Noah ark Bring 2 of every sort of living beings, Gen 6:19 Bring 7 of every clean beasts and 2 of unclean beasts, Gen 7:2 8) After resurrection After 6 days, Jesus took peter, James, john and his brother up to a high mountain, Matt 17:1 On the 8th day, Jesus took peter, john and James to the mountain, Luke 9:28 9) Michal, daughter of Saul Michal had no child unto the day of her death, 2 Samuel 6:23 The king took the 5 sons of Michal, 2 Samuel 21:8 10) Good works Let others see your good works to glorify your father, Matt 5:16 Hide your good works, otherwise your father will not reward you, Matt 6:1. Trusting the bible is like trusting politicians who self contradict.
I am baffled as to how one can take Swedenborg seriously! He said the most rediculous things! Little people living on the moon which we now know is impossible with no atmosphere and extreme heat variations! I could list a whole lot more of his nonsense but why bother believe that tripe if you like? He also said there were humans living on the planet Venus! We now know if there ever was a world like hell it would be Venus!it rains sufuric acid is hot enough to melt lead on its surface and the atmospheric pressure on the surface is hundreds of times greater than that of the Earth? If a human actually landed on Venus they would be burned to ashes by the extreme heat crushed by the huge surface atmospheric pressure and turned into sludge by the constant rain of sulfuric acid? I could list the same sort on nonsense such as human like beings living on the gas giant Jupiter!?
Amazing to find your channel and all things Swedenborg. Thanks for your light.
Thanks for that and your light as well

Appreciate the affirmation! Thanks again for connecting
Good job
I appreciate the words of encouragement and positivity!
Thank you for doing this, I cant download the books on my android 😞
Thank you! You can't? Perhaps try here: SwedenborgianCommunity.org/explore
@@spiritual_sunshine_ it worked! Thank you so much!
Are the words themselves inadequate? Take the word Joy, the more experience you have of Joy the more the word means to you :D
But I am finding more and more feelings that words cannot describe.
I think you're onto something there! I also think words often do little to express the extent of our emotions, we have to somewhat rely on other's opinions of a word and relating metaphors to help illuminate our meaning.
How has that been for you? Tell all of us a bit about your story!
Would be good also if this book was simply 'read'
The Swedenborg Foundation publishes the audiobook :)

the unsaved at the second resurrection will be judged and undergo a second death according to Revelation 21:8

Interesting! Perhaps this is why Swedenborg believed that its allegorical underpinnings contained its most important messages.

One human's trash I guess. Thank you for your willingness to connect
There is no afterlife. What are u talking about? Why are u wasting your time and everyone else's? GET A LIFE!!
Thank you for helping to motivate me to get a life, love that you want to motivate true living. Thanks for sharing
Why are you even here? You’re like an ignorant dog seeking out the vacuum cleaner and then proceeding to howl
How do you know there is no life after death?
If a highly informed highly intelligent person talks nonsense it is nonsense? Swedenborg fits this exactly! He was very smart but said silly nonsense!
Lol what you've said is understandable but a little bewildering, you sound like Kant's description of Swedenborg. Really thank you for the share
