“Go,” he told him, “wash in the Pool of Siloam.” - The Hell is to be Created by Oneself


The Hell is to be Created by Oneself

The most famous person in terms of spiritualism is Emanuel Swedenborg (1688 - 1772), the psychic in the same era of Isaac Newton, who claimed that he had seen the spirit world or the afterworld. His works have been translated even into Japanese. Helen Keller believed his claim though she was blind and deaf.

Another famous man diffusing the spirit world and afterword is Conan Doyle (1859 - 1930), the author of Sherlock Holmes series.

Swedenborg wrote that whatever one thought in the spirit world where he entered after his death would become true.  Doyle as a spirit invoked by a psychic also told that one was making his own world in the material world and also in the spirit world, which means that the afterworld one is to enter after his death is also made by himself.

A man without love to others should make a world without love to others in this real world and also in the spirit world.  Namely, he makes the hell by himself in this material world and even in the spirit world.  By contrast a man with love to others makes a world with love in this real world and also in the spirit world.  He would enter the heaven after his death in this material world.

Swedenborg died in London though his body was shipped back to Sweden 1908.   Doyle  was knighted in London by King Edward VII in the 1902 Coronation Honours (Wikipedia).  Indeed, spiritualism was developed more seriously in the early 20th century before Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr launched the modern physics.

However,  pure, simple, and lucid readers of the Bible should believe that the spirit world exists and whatever they wish in the name of Jesus Christ should come true even in this material world as well as in the spirit world.

John 9
3 “Neither this man nor his parents sinned,” said Jesus, “but this happened so that the works of God might be displayed in him. 4 As long as it is day, we must do the works of him who sent me. Night is coming, when no one can work. 5 While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”
6 After saying this, he spit on the ground, made some mud with the saliva, and put it on the man’s eyes. 7 “Go,” he told him, “wash in the Pool of Siloam” (this word means “Sent”). So the man went and washed, and came home seeing.
8 His neighbors and those who had formerly seen him begging asked, “Isn’t this the same man who used to sit and beg?” 9 Some claimed that he was.Others said, “No, he only looks like him.”
