Four Doctrines

Mehr zum Buch

Although never published as a single volume in his lifetime, these four statements of belief form the core of the theology of Emanuel Swedenborg (1688-1772). The four doctrines are: a description of the nature of the Lord, by which Swedenborg means both Jesus and God; the inner spiritual meaning of holy scripture; the nature of evil and and importance of good works; and nature of faith. This edition is a reprint, with revisions, of a 1904 translation by John Faulkener Potts.
