It is said, upon the will, but this m... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=399 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 400 400.

(1) That the b... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=420 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 8 8.

No man who is in the delights of the lusts of evil can know anything of the delights of the affections of good in which the angelic heaven is; for these two kinds of delight are absolutely opposite to each other in internals, and consequently are opposite interiorly in externals, although indeed they differ but little on the surface. For every love has its own delights; even the love of evil h... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=38 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 89 89.
