8963. Since the truths of faith derived from the Word are used in conflict, a person is not allowed to be involved in conflict until he possesses cognitions or a knowledge of truth and good, and has acquired from them some spiritual life. Therefore those conflicts do not arise with a person until he has reached adulthood.
