AC 9744 - The Formation of the Understanding

In so far as the understanding
has been formed from genuine truths,
so far it excels,
and so far it is "fine twilled linen,"

AC 9755 [2] - Truths in Knowledge, Truths in Faith

. . . the truth in the natural or external person
is truth in knowledge;
whereas the truth in the spiritual or internal person
is the truth of faith.
Truth in knowledge also becomes truth in faith
when it is raised out of the natural or external person
into the spiritual or internal person.
So it is that the truths with a person in his youth
are truths in knowledge;
but in adult age,
if he suffers himself to be regenerated,
they become truths in faith;
for the internal person is successively opened
even to this age.
