the goal of life or science and revelation: chapter xviii (the Likeness of God)
“All nature, wherever the mind turns, is in action, and the higher the realm the more intense is the action. Love is the action of life, or life in motion, and “God is love”, and God's love links him with all his creation. There can be no evolution without involution – that which is involved, [...]

“We have seen in former chapters that the Elohim consist of mature souls that have come into the form of the heavenly temple, an organized Body of perfected souls which most assuredly consists of both men and women; for, as the apostle says, “neither is the man without the woman, nor the woman without the [...]
the goal of life or science and revelation: chapter xiv (the angels of god)
“Swedenborg had a vague and imperfect idea regarding the spiritual heavens. He claimed that he visited many heavens of souls in their different degrees of unfoldment. Be that as it may, one thing is certain – there are centers, so to speak, where souls of like development are gathered together, all the way from the [...]

the goal of life or science and revelation: chapter xiii (Jesus of the order of Melchizedek)
“We are not left to speculate as to what Christ meant when he said, “I am the son of God”, “I and my Father are one”, “God is my Father”; varied expressions, all agreeing with his injunction to the early church, “Call no man your father on the earth, for one is your Father which [...]

“In the preceding chapter we considered references in early Biblical history to the physical manifestation of the Order of Melchizedek. The unequivocal declaration in Hebrews that Jesus was of that Order is a fact, whatever the belief may be regarding the authenticity of the Epistle to the Hebrews or of the Bible. The existence in [...]

“These quotations suffice to show, with the aid of the chapters in immediate connection with them, that there did live during the period of the patriarchs, even down to the time of the Judges, an order of mystics, called “Masters” by men, but who called themselves, an “Order of the Sons of God”, who were [...]
