Swedenborg, Emanuel, 1688-1772

"Heaven and its Wonders and Hell"

{4} Good of faith is
in its essence truth from good.
{Footnote 1} The Lord is seen in heaven as a sun, and is the
sun of heaven (n. 1053, 3636, 3643, 4060). The Lord is seen as
a sun by those who are in His celestial kingdom, where love to
Him reigns, and as a moon by those who are in His spiritual
kingdom, where charity to the neighbor and faith reign (n.
1521, 1529-1531, 1837, 4696). The Lord is seen as a sun at a
middle height before the right eye, and an a moon before the
left eye (n. 1053, 1521, 1529-1531, 3636, 3643, 4321, 5097,
7078, 7083, 7173, 7270, 8812, 10809). The Lord is seen as a sun
and as a moon (n. 1531, 7173). The Lord's Divine Itself is far
above His Divine in heaven (n. 7270, 8760).
{Footnote 2} "Fire" in the Word signifies love, both in a good
sense and in a bad sense (n. 934, 4906, 5215). Holy or heavenly
fire signifies the Divine Love (n. 934, 6314, 6832). Infernal
fire signifies love of self and of the world and every lust of
those loves (n. 1861, 5071, 6314, 6832, 7575, 10747). Love is
the fire of life and life itself is really from it (n. 4906,
5071, 6032, 6314).
