109. The union of charity and faith is also the same as that of the will and understanding with man; for it is those two faculties that receive good and truth; the will receives good, and the understanding truth: hence also those two faculties receive charity and faith; because good belongs to charity, and truth to faith. Every one is aware that charity and faith are with man, and that they are in him: and, because they are with him and in him, therefore also they are nowhere else but in his will and his understanding; for the whole of a man's life is in these faculties, and from them. A man has also a memory; but this is merely an outer court, where those things are collected which are about to enter into the understanding and the will. From this it is evident, that the union of faith and charity is the same as that of will and understanding; the nature of which union may appear from what has been said above concerning the Will and the Understanding.
