HEAVEN AND HELL
(pt. 1)
There are two things which constitute the life of man's spirit, namely, love and faith -
• love constituting the life of his willThe love of good and the faith of truth thence derived, constitute the life of heaven; and the love of evil, and the faith of falsity thence derived, constitute the life of hell.
• faith the life of his understanding
