The New Jerusalem and its Heavenly Doctrine (1758) Passage 251
Translated By John Whitehead in 1892
 
251. Since therefore man lives after death, and then lives to eternity, and a life awaits him according to his love and faith, it follows that the Divine, out of love towards the human race, has revealed such things as may lead to that life, and conduce to man's salvation. What the Divine has revealed, is with us the Word.
