Excerpt
“That Angels are human forms, or men, I have seen a
thousand times. I have
also frequently told them that men in the Christian world are in
such gross
ignorance respecting Angels and Spirits as to suppose them to be
minds
without a form, or mere thoughts, of which they have no other idea
than as
something ethereal possessing a vital principle. To the first
or ultimate
heaven also correspond the forms of man’s body, called its
members, organs,
and viscera. Thus the corporeal part of man is that in which
heaven
ultimately closes, and upon which, as on its base, it
rests.”
—SWEDENBORG.
