AC 258 - The Quality of the Doctrine of Faith

AC 2584 [3]

(Regarding) the quality of the doctrine of faith
when regarded from Divine truths,
and when regarded from the rational:
when it is regarded from Divine truths,
that is, from the Word,
then each and all things,
of both reason and memory, confirm it;
but this is the the case
when it is regarded from human things,
that is, from reason and memory-knowledges;
for then nothing of good
and nothing of truth is conceived;
for to regard it from the Word
is to regard it from the Lord,
whereas to regard it from reason and memory-knowledge
is to regard it from man.
From the former comes all intelligence and wisdom;
from the latter all insanity and folly.
