AC 10022 - as evils & falsities are removed, the Lord can flow in

AC 10022 [2]
. . . when a person has been purified from evils and falsities,
which is effected by their removal,
then good and truth from the Lord flow in,
and insofar as good and truth flow in,
in this state, so far they are implanted, and so far they are conjoined;
for the Lord is continually present with good and truth with every person,
but He is not received except insofar as evils and falsities are removed,
thus insofar as the person is purified from them.
The conjunction of truth and good is regeneration.
