AC 8321 [2]
... faith without charity is hard and resistant,
and rejects all the influx from the Lord;
but charity with faith is yielding and gentle and receives the influx.
From this it is that charity gives this capacity,
but not faith without charity;
and as charity gives this capacity, it is this also which saves;
for they who are saved are not saved through charity from themselves,
but through charity from the Lord,
consequently through the capacity of receiving it.
