တရားဟောရာကျမ်း第21章:23

Verse 23. You shall not permit any remnant of this evil to remain in the proprium through the period of temptation to succeeding states of regeneration, but shall entirely reject it in the state in which its malignity has been fully perceived (for evils that are seen and acknowledged separate the soul from all spiritual life if not removed); that the holy states be not denied, with which the soul is gifted by the Divine Love and Wisdom in regeneration. (See also Apocalypse Explained 655.)
