Swedenborg's followers begin to organize into formal religious societies, known as the New Church or Swedenborgian churches. These churches are founded on the principles outlined in his theological writings.

The General Conference of the New Church is founded in London, marking a significant step in the formal organization of Swedenborgianism.

Swedenborg's ideas exert a significant influence on writers and poets, including William Blake, Honoré de Balzac, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry James Sr., and Elizabeth Barrett Browning. They are drawn to his mystical vision, his concept of correspondences, and his emphasis on spiritual transformation.

Swedenborg's ideas also influence philosophers and psychologists, including Carl Jung. Jung draws inspiration from Swedenborg's concept of the collective unconscious and his exploration of dreams and symbolism.

Swedenborg's works continue to be studied and debated by scholars, theologians, and spiritual seekers. His ideas remain a source of inspiration and controversy, prompting ongoing discussions about the nature of consciousness, the afterlife, and the relationship between science and religion.
