AE 817 - Every Kind of Faith

AE 817 [5]

For every kind of faith
must necessarily conjoin itself with some love;
therefore when spiritual love,
which is charity, is separated,
faith then conjoins itself with the love of self
or with the love of the world,
which are the loves that are dominant in the natural man;
and this is why so heinous an adultery results
from faith separated from charity.
