FAITH
(pt. 3)
Charity conjoins itself with faith with man, when man wills that which he knows and perceives; to will is of charity, and to know and perceive is of faith.
Faith enters into man, and becomes his, when he wills and loves that which he knows and perceives; meanwhile it is without him.
(The New Jerusalem and Its Heavenly Doctrine 110)
• In the manuscript, the author, Emanuel Swedenborg, annexed to each section of the doctrine extracts from the Arcana Coelestia, because in the Arcana Coelestia the same things are more fully explained. Arcana Coelestia is available in print or online.
