Benade, the great New Church priest, would have been helpless, in an ultimate sense, had not the Lord raised up another servant to hold up his hands in the terrible struggle which followed upon the proclamation of the principles of the Academy,-a servant who also was endowed with special gifts, in order that a secure ultimation on this earth might be provided for that internal movement which the organized New Church as a whole, with incredible blindness, has now during forty years opposed and endeavored to stamp out. Benade was sent not only to become the intellectual leader of the Academy movement, but to outline, organize and lead in the establishment of those practical uses, by which alone a distinctive and genuine Church Specific may be founded in this world.īut Mr. William Henry Benade was a servant raised up for a special mission within the organized Church,-the use of bringing to a focus those interior views of doctrine which had been gradually developed within the Church during a century of intellectual struggles, and most especially the recognition of that fundamental truth that the Gospel of the Second Coming is indeed the Word of the Lord. Emanuel Swedenborg was that servant whom the Lord raised up and prepared for the supreme and incomparable mission.
What these fruits shall be we can see only with the eyes of faith and hope,-visions of the day when the New Church as a whole shah be united in appreciation of the principles and uses of the Academy, and of the still more distant day when the Lord's New Church shall begin to come to her own in her mission for the regeneration and salvation of the universal human race.įor all the great movements in the past history of the world the Lord has always raised up leaders endowed and prepared as His special instruments. His work in this world is now finished, but the fruits of his love and intense activity will be reaped by those who are to follow after him.
