DEAD TO BE JUDGED
Symbolic of the lower personalities to be
estimated according to their merits and demerits.
"For unto this end was the gospel preached even to the dead, that
they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live
according to God in the spirit." - 1 PETER iv. 6.
The lower personalities having had placed before them spiritual
knowledge as a means of development, they are in a position to
profit through their experiences of the lower life (flesh), so that
the Divine nature within them may unfold to the light.
"By the dead who are to be judged, in a universal sense are meant
they who have died out of the world, but in a proper sense are meant
they who have not any spiritual life." - SWEDENBORG, Apocalypse
Revealed, n. 525.
