AE 1121 - mages and likenesses

AE 1121 [3]
. . . since they (people) are receptacles of life
they could not
when first created
be anything else
than images and likenesses of God;
images from the reception of truth
and likenesses from the reception of good;
for life and its recipient are fitted to each other
as the active and passive,
but do not mingle.

. . . Good and its love
and truth and its faith
are the life that is God,
for God is good itself and truth itself;
and therefore in these
God dwells in a person.
