Excerpt from Lectures on the New Dispensation: Called the New Jerusalem The writings of the New Church are eminently pure and spi ritual. They contain the truths Of the spiritual sense of the Word, such as the angels receive, and are calculated to make men like the angels. They are addressed to us as rational and Spiritual beings. They Open to our view the spiritual world, and unfold the laws Of Spiritual life. And because the truths which are contained in these writings are thus spiritual in their charac ter, they are Often called dark and mystical; for so they appear to those whose minds are imbued with the doctrines Of sensual ism. Spiritual truths must needs appear dark and mystical to persons who have no faith in the reality of a spiritual world, and no love for spiritual things. The charge Of mysticism which is Often brought against these writings, is itself a sufficient oommen tary upon the spiritual state Of those who make it. Unto you (who are the Lord's true, spiritual disciples) it is given to know the mystery Of the kingdom Of God; but unto them that are with out, all things are done in parables.
