Verse 12. Also a proper arrangement of truths shall take place; truth shall be accurately distinguished from good; and the good of merit shall be distinguished from the good of love, in the pure worship of the Lord.

59. There are two loves, from which, as from their very fountains, all goods and truths exist; and there are two loves, from which all evils and falsities exist. The two loves, from which are all goods and truths, are love to the Lord and love towards the neighbor; and the two loves from which are all evils and falsities, are the love of self and the love of the world. The two latter loves are in direct opposition to the two former loves.
