angels are humans
last judgement occured
jesus will not return in body but spiritually?
resurrection is immediate after death
planets have life so every planet needs christ and salvation
Saint Paul is misleading though he was given all authrity from Jesus and holy spirit
Swedenborg writings are a third testament though he is almost unknown
he established a new church and the present church has come to an end which Jesus said the gates of hell is unable to vanish
he describes heaven as a huge human?
the lord is the ruler of heaven and no father

Having studied the Bible for the past 30 years and brought up in Bible churches prior to that for another 15 years and my mother a Bible graduate of Moody Bible Institute (with honors); I found some of his writings interesting; .............but, like the works of Joseph Smith, or Ellen G. White..........a person must make careful comparison to Hebrew Biblical References to the works of these people and the Scriptures statements that seem to align themselves to their writings. What it boils down to is a very very careful and prayerful consideration of the authors topics and material written and the Truth of Biblical Word. A person can not say Nay or Yeah as to whether these people were not truly divinely given special privileges or information; where the nominal believer has never had such experience. Only God knows the true nature of a persons heart and their true thirst for wisdom from God. Wherein the average believer may false judge or evaluate that persons experience upon which they relay to others, in their elation of having wisdom to share, they write down to pass on to others the knowledge so as to "teach" others. In the Bible in Jude Malachi the angel darned not to bring an accusation against Satan, but said; "The Lord Rebuke You Satan!" In other words, leave the judging up to God and be careful to compare scripture to scripture and Word to Word and Truth to Truth. We are all but human and none of us perfect, yet even the most lowely and sinful can be lifted up by God to attain unto Holy Things in a Personal and devoted relationship. Who are each one of us to judge another just because we have not had the same experiences. Recently got a sampling and some info on his life from the foundation in PA.
