Description
Swedenborg's last published work during his lifetime, this book contains a summary of the extensive teachings Swedenborg received throughout his period of visions. Swedenborg considered his theology to be the original teachings of Christ, which had become obfuscated through centuries of misinterpretation. According to him, what he offered was neither a "theology" nor a "philosophy," but rather a direct spiritual revelation from God. Swedenborg's "true Christian religion" is based on chaste and loving marriage, a rejection of the doctrine of the Trinity, and a belief that both faith and works are necessary to receive salvation. Swedenborg also believed that the Last Judgment had already occurred, though it was only visible in the spirit world.
