AC 10064 - Love and Good; Understanding and Truth

AC 10064

When Divine good is mentioned,
Divine love is also meant,
because all good is of love,
for whatever is loved is perceived as good,
and consequently is also called good.
But all truth is of faith;
for whatever is believed is perceived as truth,
and is also so called.
From this it follows that those things
which form the understanding of man are of faith,
and those which form the will are of love,
for the understanding of man
has been set apart to receive the truths of faith,
and his will to receive the goods of love.
The understanding of man is therefore such
as are the truths which form it,
and such as is the faith of these truths;
and the will of man is such
as are the goods which make it,
and such as is the love of these goods.
