"I have seen, I have heard, I have felt." (AC 68)


by Rev. Derek P. Elphick

Type of Event: Worship Service: Sermon only

Date Recorded: June 18, 2023

Location: Bryn Athyn Cathedral

Topics: New Church Day

Groups: New Church Day Season

On the day before our celebration of New Church Day, we will take a moment to marvel at the nature of the Lord’s new revelation, given through His servant, Emanuel Swedenborg. The Lord could have simply dictated to Swedenborg all the necessary facts and information of this new revelation but instead Swedenborg spent decades living and breathing the sights and sounds and smells of the spiritual realm. Why was this necessary? Do we need a similar “immersion” in spiritual delights in order to properly discern between good and evil?
