Commentary on this verse  

By Alexander Payne

Verse 25. All the false theories which are formulated by the unregenerate heart shall be consumed by the influx of Divine Love into the soul: you shall not be enticed by the appearances of good and truth with which their interior evil is concealed, nor accept those appearances (which are in reality from self-love, Apocalypse Explained 242, end), lest you be thereby drawn away from heaven; for the evil and false covered with appearances of what is good and true, more than all things draw away the soul from Divine Goodness and Wisdom.
