How
servile
fear
is
not
sufficient
,
without
the
love
of
virtue
,
to
give
eternal
life
;
and
how
the
law
of
fear
and
that
of
love
are
united
.
Then
the
goodness
of
God
,
wishing
to
satisfy
the
desire
of
that
soul
,
said
, "
Do
you
see
those
?
They
have
arisen
with
servile
fear
from
the
vomit
of
mortal
sin
,
but
,
if
they
do
not
arise
with
love
of
virtue
,
servile
fear
alone
is
not
sufficient
to
give
eternal
life
.
But
love
with
holy
fear
is
sufficient
,
because
the
law
is
founded
in
love
and
holy
fear
.
The
old
law
was
the
law
of
fear
,
that
was
given
by
Me
to
Moses
,
by
which
law
they
who
committed
sin
suffered
the
penalty
of
it
.
The
new
law
is
the
law
of
love
,
given
by
the
Word
of
My
only-begotten
Son
,
and
is
founded
in
love
alone
.
The
new
law
does
not
break
the
old
law
,
but
rather
fulfills
it
,
as
said
My
Truth
, '
I
come
not
to
destroy
the
law
,
but
to
fulfill
it
.'
And
He
united
the
law
of
fear
with
that
of
love
.
Through
love
was
taken
away
the
imperfection
of
the
fear
of
the
penalty
,
and
the
perfection
of
holy
fear
remained
,
that
is
,
the
fear
of
offending
,
not
on
account
of
one
'
s
own
damnation
,
but
of
offending
Me
,
who
am
Supreme
Good
.
So
that
the
imperfect
law
was
made
perfect
with
the
law
of
love
.
Wherefore
,
after
the
car
of
the
fire
of
My
only-begotten
Son
came
and
brought
the
fire
of
My
charity
into
your
humanity
with
abundance
of
mercy
,
the
penalty
of
the
sins
committed
by
humanity
was
taken
away
,
that
is
,
he
who
offended
was
no
longer
punished
suddenly
,
as
was
of
old
given
and
ordained
in
the
law
of
Moses
.
"
There
is
,
therefore
,
no
need
for
servile
fear
;
and
this
does
not
mean
that
sin
is
not
punished
,
but
that
the
punishment
is
reserved
,
unless
,
that
is
to
say
,
the
person
punish
himself
in
this
life
with
perfect
contrition
.
For
,
in
the
other
life
,
the
soul
is
separated
from
the
body
,
wherefore
while
man
lives
is
his
time
for
mercy
,
but
when
he
is
dead
comes
the
time
of
justice
.
He
ought
,
then
,
to
arise
from
servile
fear
,
and
arrive
at
love
and
holy
fear
of
Me
,
otherwise
there
is
no
remedy
against
his
falling
back
again
into
the
river
,
and
reaching
the
waters
of
tribulation
,
and
seeking
the
thorns
of
consolation
,
for
all
consolations
are
thorns
that
pierce
the
soul
who
loves
them
disordinately
."
