124. That the Church is thus formed with man by the Lord is because then he is in conjunction with the Lord, being in good from Him and in truth as if from himself. Thus man is in the Lord and the Lord in him, according to His words in John 15:4, 5. It is the same if for good we say charity, and for truth, faith; for good pertains to charity, and truth to faith.
