A Brief Exposition of New Church Doctrine #102
102. XXIV. The Faith of the New Church cannot possibly be together with the Faith of the former Church; for, if they were together, such a collision and conflict would ensue that everything of the Church with man would perish.
Isaiah 65:17-19
17
For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
18
But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.
19
And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying.
