484. The Church called 'Seth' was very similar to the Most Ancient Church. This is clear from the statement that 'Man beget in his own likeness, according to his own Image, and called his name Seth'. 'Likeness' has regard to faith and 'image' to love. That it was not in fact the same as the Most Ancient Church so far as love to the Lord and faith deriving from that love were concerned is clear from the statement immediately previous, 'Male and female He created them, blessed them, and called their name Man', meaning the spiritual man of the sixth day, as stated already. The likeness of this man was to the spiritual man of the sixth day, that is, love was not so much supreme, but faith was still joined to love.
