AC 5321
. . . the Lord is doctrine itself,
for everything of doctrine proceeds from Him,
and everything of doctrine treats of Him;
for all doctrine
treats of the good of love and of the truth of faith.
These are from the Lord,
and therefore the Lord is not only in them,
but also is both.
From this it is evident
that the doctrine that treats of good and truth,
treats of the Lord only;
and that it proceeds from His Divine Human.
[2] From the Divine Itself
nothing of doctrine can possibly proceed
except through the Divine Human,
that is, through the Word,
which in the supreme sense
is the Divine truth from the Lord's Divine Human.
Not even the angels in the inmost heaven
can comprehend that which proceeds immediately
from the Divine Itself,
because it is infinite,
and therefore transcends all comprehension,
even that of angels.
But that which proceeds from the Lord's Divine Human
they can comprehend,
because it treats of God as a Divine Man . . ..
