TCR 481
. . . the Lord flows in from a higher or more inward level
filling everyone with Divine good and Divine truth . . .
and to enable him to receive these gifts and act upon them
He confers the ability and will,
which are never taken away.
It follows from this
that the Lord perpetually wills a person to receive truth and do good,
thus becoming spiritual, the destiny for which he was born.
TCR 484 [2]
Ah, my friend, shun evil and do good,
and believe in the Lord with all your heart and with all your soul,
and the Lord will love you,
and give you love so that you can act,
and faith so that you can believe.
Then you will be impelled by love to do good,
and by faith, which is trust, to believe.
And if you persevere in this,
you will be conjoined with Him and He with you, and this for ever;
and this is the essence of salvation and everlasting life.
