Второзаконие第25章:5

Verse 5. If there are two kindred and associated goods (such as spiritual and natural good, which are brethren), and one of them perish without leaving spiritual offspring, the truths associated with the lost good must net be alienated from the soul; but be cherished by the kindred good which shall be conjoined with them, so as to develop fresh goods and truths in the soul therefrom. [Note.—Thus in regeneration those who have formerly acted from merely natural good come at length to see that natural good is not real good, and it perishes; but the good deeds and thoughts associated with it must by no means be omitted but be done in the future with more judgement from a superior and spiritual motive. (Natural good is that of good-nature, as it is called, the natural disposition that one has to please others.)]
