13、不是每个经历重生的人都能达到这个阶段。如今，绝大多数人只达到第一个阶段，有些人只达到第二个阶段，有些人达到第三、第四或第五个阶段；很少有人达到第六个阶段；几乎没有人达到第七个阶段。

Cooper(2008,2013)
[NCE]13. Not everyone who undergoes regeneration reaches this stage. Some (the great majority, these days) arrive only at the first stage, some only at the second, some at the third, fourth, or fifth, very few at the sixth, and almost no one at the seventh.{*1}
Footnotes:
{*1} Swedenborg describes the seventh stage in the next chapter, which tells what happened on the seventh day of creation. See 74, 84-88. [LHC]
Potts(1905-1910) 13
13. Those who are being regenerated do not all arrive at this state. The greatest part, at this day, attain only the first state; some only the second; others the third, fourth, or fifth; few the sixth; and scarcely anyone the seventh.
Elliott(1983-1999) 13
13. Not all people who are being regenerated reach this state. Some, indeed the majority nowadays, reach only the first. Some reach merely the second, others the third, fourth, or fifth. Seldom do any reach the sixth, and hardly anybody at all reaches the seventh.
Latin(1748-1756) 13
13. Qui regenerantur, non omnes ad statum hunc veniunt, sed quidam, et maxima pars hodie, solum ad primum; quidam modo ad alterum; quidam ad tertium, quartum, quintum; raro ad sextum; et vix ullus ad septimum.
