So anyone who has the quality of goodness from the Lord is an angel-person.g - Emmanuel Swedenborg

Man knows that love is, but not what it is.

A spiritual church first becomes a church when it acts as bidden by charity, charity being the true teaching of faith.

By this faith instilled from childhood and afterward confirmed by preachings, it has come to pass that no one shuns evils from religion, but only from civil and moral law; thus not because they are sins but because they are damaging.
