HEAVEN AND HELL (pt. 1)

The New Jerusalem and Its Heavenly Doctrine

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 will
• faith the life of his understanding 
The 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.
(The New Jerusalem and Its Heavenly Doctrine 230)
