Now it's mystics? Mystics exist in every religion on earth and you know something? I've never heard of an argument between any. Personally, I've had spiritual/mystical experiences since I was 25 and have learned a lot from what the great Catholic mystics have written. Swedenborg had all of his experiences directly with the Lord while meditating on Scripture. I really got into his Writings after I retired and I had the opportunity to apply to apply my life's experience to what he wrote. It literally saved my life.

It also takes no mind reading to see you are lacking in the love toward the neighbor department. The book of John is known as the most mystical of the Gospels (about 3.6M hits on Google). The last person I would ask to interpret John is an anti-mystic - LOL

A PDF scan of Swedenborg's Schmidt Latin Bible is available online with handwritten notes. I'd post the link but fear you'll profane it.

Jesus no where said we were to love false teaching.

The last person I would ask to interpret John is someone who has no grasp of the contents of John.

No, his notes most likely have already profaned it.
