Thank you so much for telling us Reece!

Wait you can read these free somewhere?

Agreed. And well said!

Can you please suggest one of those three book titles to read first? Love and blessings from Mexico!

Heaven and Hell but all is wel ;)

@@migdez True Christian Religion is an absolute marvel. But the ultimate set is the five books called 'The Spiritual Diary.' These books are astounding, earth shaking, and so valuable as to be priceless. Via Con Dios amigo.

@dark side Because he was very critical of the catholic church, and he wasn't too happy with many other churches. His father was a Lutheran bishop, but he even criticized that church. He was right, but many don't want to hear the truth.

vladimir volk I love this It Answers a lot of questions that make sense and comprehensive breakdown, based on human nature and people in general.

i mean, the bible has knowledge in it, why not read the same thing he read and think about it too?

I totally agree with you Vladimir

Here Here Vladimir !

@@Jeff4theRaid Yeshua told His disciples that there was much that He could tell them, but that they were not yet prepared to receive it. Swedenborg tells us many of those things now, to those who have begun to grasp the truth of biblical prophecy, and the essential message written in the Word. He tells us many arcana previously hidden.

HK has always been a hero of mine and I recently discovered that she was a Luciferian which is somewhat troubling!

@@rigavitch You discovered she was a Luciferian? Where did you hear that?

@@waynekasmar4401 helen keller was a scam artist she wasnt deaf or blind

@@freethinker8603 I've seen a KZfaq vid by a guy who thinks he has caught her out where she appears in an old film in which her communication method is demonstrated. In all likelihood it was actually acted out for the purpose of demonstration, as they tended to innocently do back in the 1950s, but this guy has gone to town about it and accuses Helen Keller of being a complete charlatan. What makes it embarrassing is that he has a friend with him on this vid who is nowhere near as sure that some skullduggary is afoot. I'm assuming that this vid is the one that's gone viral and has got a lot of people like yourself spouting a lot of rubbish.

@@waynekasmar4401 no thats not the one

Thank you Helen! So glad you've found us, and that you're feeling that what Swedenborg learned is resonating with you!

Helen Tucker I grew up in the new church and started questioning everything when I got to high school. Sure religion gives hope to people when faced with the horror of life but it’s all nonsense written by primitive people.

Psychedelic Visionary Gee, what a shitty thing to say.

Thank you so much for all more ideas about life after death coz I'm so sad of my loving husband died. Thanks god for everything happen so I can face tomorrow for gods will. Amen...

For those of us who have mingled in the light of unconditional love we live the instinct of love in a divine way for those minutes or seconds. We sense the presence of Jesus. We see in the deeds of Jesus serving others and asking nothing in return, and judging nobody he healed. We realise the same instinct that all people desire to be loved. Swedenborg is saying exactly what is in the message Jesus brought for all Mankind to share. There are many accounts that share similar divine moments now as technology enables it to be shared. People always have had divine moments but had no way to share it with others. This is why many lifelong 'bad' people discover the presence of God and His truth in times of adversity and change their ways. Their old 'friends' tend to ridicule them forever afterwards. 'Swedenborg had a platform of authority and respect already in his community. That made it possible for him to share.

Yesss...standing on the shoulders of giants who have awakened to Truth/Unicity/Reality.

Unfortunately, some collector has his head.

@@ghosty426 Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences bought it back in 1978. Swedenborg lies intact and in peace in Uppsala Domkyrka.

@@ChihirotheShibaInu Thank you for that update. May Swedenborg rest in Peace. He was truly a gifted man in many ways.

@@ghosty426 He is in good company with other geniuses such as Carl von Linné and Olof Rudbeck d.ä also being buried there

I've been there. 🙏 It was very special

Thanks so much Gregg!

It is largely because he was critical of the church. His father was the Bishop of Scara, the same bishop who was the head of the Lutheran Church in the USA, and Emmanuel pointed out their errors. Swedenborg called the catholic church a false church, and he also was forthright in his analysis of many denominations that were prominent at his time - the mid 1700's.

I. Have found the people of late have been led down a false road concerning the Catholic Church and most of our daily activities are too. The world has become. Led by faultshoods.. At age 87, I see big changes coming and it is very necessary.

no they are not complex. it's just that no powerful interests are sponsoring it. plus the elite want to promote a god of fear and control, either that or atheism.

Perhaps these merely seem complex to western hierarchical religious programmed, materialism braintrashed, & TV-bamboozled/distracted mindsets.

Maybe under Divine Providence it has been given a low profile for its own protection. Swedenborg said it would definitely become big but it would take some time. He cited the first Christian church as an example of how long it could take, and that was 300 years while suffering a lot of persecution. He also said that the doctrines of the first Christian church would have to be removed from the minds of people before the ideas in his writings could be properly received there. This has only just, in these last few years, come about. All the young generations of people since the 1960's have declined to accept and commit to traditional Christian teachings and this means virtually all the older, traditionally Christian people from before that time are now dead. So, it's only now, for the first time, that Swedenborg's precondition for his writings to flourish has come into being. We may soon see his writings become widely accepted.

You're most welcome! Enjoy your reading!

Which book will you be starting with?

Thank you for the kind words, Jules. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Your kind and uplifting message means a lot to us, Andy. We're grateful to have you in our online community, and look forward to meeting you someday, in this world or the next!

this is satanic not a gift. having Jesus in your life is a gift. repent and be saved he loves you. swedenborg is dead. Jesus is not.

What's satanic about Swedenborg? Swedenborg encouraged people to worship God and follow Jesus, what's so satanic about that?

Random dude...perhaps there is more to learn about the nature of infinite Reality, and our own true, primary birthless/deathless identity, one with all. Godspeed us to the experience of awakening above and beyond these time- and space-ensnared humanoid bodies.

Wow, this comment means a lot to us Ken! Thanks so much for sharing your joy with us!

@@SwedenborgFoundation1 Thank you too, for your exceptional work.

Thanks Cheyenne, so glad you enjoyed learning about Swedenborg! How neat that you pass by his statue everyday!

Westerners only started trusting the Buddha in the 20th Century.

That is a very ignorant comment from you.

Ultimately, all are of the very same Wholey Real One. Though the naming is different, the Buddha and the Christ are One...with surface differences reflecting differences in time and culture. These awakened ones likewise inform us that as we turn ever more inward, our own soul will ripen and mature to be as they...

Swedenborg Foundation are you going to release more of Swedenborg's unabridged titles on audible?.. only one so far.. would be great to have a few more on there. if not all of them..

Hello jones! Sorry to just see this comment now. Yes, we do plan to release more Swedenborg audio books on Audible in the future. The process is complicated due to Audibles standards and requirements, and because of how long the audio recordings of the books are. But I think Divine Providence is almost ready, and should be up sometime in early 2017. We have True Christianity Vol 1. and Heaven and Hell also available as audio books on our website (www.swedenborg.com/bookstore/cds-dvds-audiobooks/) but they are not yet on Audible. Hope this helps!

Swedenborg Foundation love Swedenborgs books.

Thank you for the kind words! Glad you enjoyed it

Very good channel

He shares God and the message of Jesus with you. Church denominations tend to preach down at us. He does not. It is not his concept. We find God in service to others. As Jesus shows us. As He did. All of us who have had similar divine encounters have witnessed the unconditional love that Swedenborg talks about. When you accept Jesus Christ as your saviour and the Holy Spirit as your teacher then the research begins through prayer. And you discover your own reborn relationship with the divine nature of God. John 16...12 “I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear. 13 But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. 14 He will glorify me because it is from me that he will receive what he will make known to you. 15 All that belongs to the Father is mine. That is why I said the Spirit will receive from me what he will make known to you.”

It's bloody awful

This made us smile! Glad you found it!

You just can't possibly understand or maybe you can. But all my life I've waited for these revelations of Swedenborgs to confirm what I've known in my heart. But did not know of Swedenborgs works till three days ago. I am 60 yrs old. Finally the nature of God is revealed.

Someone else suggested mute and put on subtitles

Not only about Swedenborg but nowadays it's streaming Things Heard & Seen on Netflix

Yet time is a subjective projected illusion...so, don't hold your breath, but rather be present in THIS everherenow moment, eh?

Thanks Christina!

I personally think that Swedenborg was not anyone inherently special apart from perhaps being the most intelligent non-divine human being of all time (He's been mentioned in the Guinness Book of Records as being the person who perhaps had the highest IQ of all time). That the revelation given by God through him was supposed to be the ultimate explanation of Truth for Humanity, and that humanity had now reached its adult ability to understand everything to do with spirituality, would suggest it was now feasible that an sufficiently intelligent person of that time was capable of fully understanding and explaining it to others through his own natural intelligence. God would not now have to resort to using a human being purely as a instrument through which he would have to dictate his message, as in previous ages. Still, Swedenborg did say that God had to fill the person doing this job with his Spirit in order for it to happen. And this would mean, according to Swedenborg's own writings, that he would have had to have been personally regenerated. There's plenty in his Journal of Dreams and throughout his writings to suggest this was the case. So basically what I'm saying is that God explained the information to Swedenborg, and Swedenborg, who understood it both intellectually and spiritually, then passed it on.
