AE 819 & AE 820a - goods of love & good in truth

AE 819 [3] (2)
... goods that are of life are what gives life to faith, and make it spiritual.
For love is the very soul of faith, and love is doing,
for a what a man loves he wills, and what he wills he does.

And this the Lord teaches in John 14:21, 24:

He that has My commandments and does them,
he it is that loves Me;
but he that loves Me not, does not keep My words.

AE 820a [4]
Moreover, as soon as good is implanted in truths with man
he is conjoined with the angels....
