AC 4380 - regeneration is effected by means of good conjoined with truth

AC 4380
... when good has applied itself to truths

and has conjoined itself with them a little,
then truth appears to react.
Yet it is not truth,
but the good that is conjoined or adjoined to it,
which reacts through the truth.


In heaven they think and speak in this way by means of abstract things,
for the reason that they do not attribute good and truth to themselves,
but to the Lord;
and because good and truth from the Lord fill the whole heaven.
