7491. The good of heavenly love and the truth of faith accompanying it flow in constantly from the Lord; but where self-love and love of the world reign they are not received. With those in whom these loves reign - that is, constantly pervade their thinking, exist as their end in view, occupy their will, and constitute their life - goodness and truth flowing in from the Lord are either rejected, annihilated, or perverted.
