The Doctrine Of The New Jerusalem Concerning The Sacred Scripture (1786)

By R. Hindmarsh

Book Overview

The Doctrine of the New Jerusalem Concerning the Sacred Scripture is a religious book written by R. Hindmarsh in 1786. The book presents the teachings of the New Church, also known as the Church of the New Jerusalem, on the nature and significance of the Bible. The New Church is a Christian denomination that emerged in the late 18th century, based on the writings of Swedish theologian Emanuel Swedenborg. The book explains the New Church's belief that the Bible is the Word of God, but that it contains deeper spiritual meanings that can only be understood through a process of interpretation. The book also discusses the role of the Bible in the spiritual life of believers, and how it can be used to gain wisdom and insight into God's will. The Doctrine of the New Jerusalem Concerning the Sacred Scripture is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the teachings of the New Church, or in the interpretation of the Bible from a spiritual perspective.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
