I ve read his books for about 25 years now. They are total Divine Rationality I came to that conclusion very fast, after I started reading. Prior to that, I always felt I didnt get the answers in the classic Christian Doctrinal teachings. They didnt make sense. The Lord changed my life through Swedenborg. I crawled up from my internally and externally dark gutter
I'm a longtime student of Emanuel Swedenborg and I enjoyed Gary Lachman navigating through the intellectual and historical figures and their connection or similarities to Swedenborg's life and ideas. It was fascinating. Thank you!
The short answer to your question is that Swedenborg received this information through his connection to the spiritual world. The story of predicting his death comes from a signed, original affidavit (which is part of our archive) made by Swedenborg's landlord, Richard Shearsmith, and his wife Elizabeth Shearsmith (née Reynolds), to Robert Hindmarsh and Thomas Wright, dated 24 November 1775 This is what is written in the affidavit: 'That about a month before he died, he told this deponent, then Elizabeth Reynolds, spinster, who was then a servant to her fellow-deponent, and Mrs. Shearsmith, her then mistress, that he should die on a particular day, which, to the best of her recollection and belief, happened on the day he had foretold.'

Very pleased you enjoyed it!
Thank You - great talk of Swedenborg! 💫
I'm truly inspired by his work and not so long ago I found out he died on the very same day I was born.
This is great but i feel it should be titled 'Swedenbourg and his influence'.

What about tokien or cs lewis
How did Swedenborg know that he would die on that very date ?

@@SwedenborgHouse Wow that is truly amazing. Swedenborg was surely a very gifted seer. He was very blessed to get all of these revelations from God.
