7662. 'With our sons and with our daughters' means those who have an affection for truth and those who have an affection for good. This is clear from the meaning of 'sons' as the truths which the Church possesses, dealt with in 489, 491, 573, 1147, 2623, 3373, thus affections since truths devoid of affection for them are not anything; and from the meaning of 'daughters' as forms of good, dealt with in 489, 491, thus affections for good, 2362, 3963.
