5520. The doctrine of the Church passes immediately into the life, with those who became celestial they live according to it, in simplicity, as soon as they know it; neither do they think at variance with it, or reason whether the thing should be done differently. But the doctrine of the Church, with the spiritual, first passes into the memory, and thence into the understanding and into the life; but they reason whether the thing is so.
