Heaven and Hell by Emanuel Swedenborg

Heaven and Hell by Emanuel Swedenborg. Swedenborg was a Swedish scientist an inventor. I would compare his drawings of flying machines to the ones of Leonardo da Vinci‘s . In 1741 at the age of fifty-three he entered into a spiritual phase in which he eventually began to experience dreams and visions. This culminated in a spiritual awakening, where he claimed he was appointed by the Lord to write a heavenly doctrine to reform Christianity. He claimed that the Lord had opened his eyes, so that from then on he could freely visit heaven and hell, and talk with angels, demons and other spirits. For the remaining 28 years of his life, he wrote and published 18 theological works, of which the best known was Heaven and Hell.
