711. That 'entering into the ark' means being made ready has been stated already at verse 18 of the previous chapter. There however it meant being made ready for salvation as regards things of the understanding, which are the truths of faith, whereas here it means being made ready as regards those of the will, which are goods springing from charity. Unless a person has been made ready, that is, has been supplied with truths and goods, he cannot possibly be regenerated, still less undergo temptations, for the evil spirits who are at that time with him activate the falsities and evils that are his. And unless truths and goods are present towards which they are turned by the Lord and by which they are scattered, he goes under. The truths and goods are the remnants which the Lord preserves for such purposes.

Mark 16:11-16

Studie

      

11 When they heard that he was alive, and had been seen by her, they disbelieved.

12 After these things he was revealed in another form to two of them, as they walked, on their way into the country.

13 They went away and told it to the rest. They didn't believe them, either.

14 Afterward he was revealed to the eleven themselves as they sat at the table, and he rebuked them for their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they didn't believe those who had seen him after he had risen.

15 He said to them, "Go into all the world, and preach the Good News to the whole creation.

16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who disbelieves will be condemned.
