The Latin Word (the Writings of Swedenborg) is dead. Do you not believe it? See for yourself
“It was said by the angels that the Word of the Lord is a dead letter; but that in him that reads it is vivified by the Lord according to the capacity of each one; and that it becomes living according to the life of his charity and his state of innocence, and this with inexpressible variety.” AC 1176
So if the New Word is not vivified in you, you believe in what is dead, not in the Living one.
