AE 1112 [2]
. . . the Lord does not separate Himself from such (the evil),
but that they separate themselves from the Lord;
for the Lord regards everyone from the face
and not from the back of the head;
and for this reason
the angels of heaven
have the Lord continually before their face,
and this whichever way they turn,
but evil spirits turn the face away from the Lord
and turn to Him the back part of the head,
and thus they separate themselves from Him.
The falsities from evils that are with them are what do this.
AE 1114
. . . it is attributed to the Lord Himself that He is angry,
that He punishes, and thus that He acts from revenge;
and yet anger and revenge are not possible in the Lord,
and consequently not in those
who are led by the Lord and live from Him.
AE 1115 [5]
An angel is not an angel from what is his own,
but from the Divine that he receives from the Lord.
