AE 675a [7, 9]
. . . those who possess truths
both in the memory and in the life
enrich themselves in intelligence to eternity . . .
Those who do not acquire spiritual intelligence in the world
through the knowledges of truth and good from the Word are evil,
as can be seen from this,
that all are born into evils of every kind,
and these evils are removed only by means of Divine truths from the Word,
that is, by applying truths to uses,
and thus receiving them in the life.
So to those who have gained it is said:
Good and faithful servants,
ye have been faithful over a few things,
I will set you over many things;
enter ye into the joy of your Lord.
(Matthew 25:21, 23)
