AE 658 - point of view

AE 658
. . . everyone sees the things that are of the Lord,
and thus of heaven and the church,
according to what his state is,
since from that he sees;
consequently he can see no otherwise
than in accord with what that is.
Thus he who denies the Lord and His Divine
in heaven and in the church
sees them not,
because he sees from the negative . . .
