a. As concerns Spiritual Goods

15. As regard the first goods [n.14], it does not seem that I can hate or not want them for an enemy per accidens, because perfect love of God is not compatible with not wanting God to be loved by others whose friendship is not known to be displeasing to him (and this friendship can exist both by reason of the noble good, namely for God’s own sake, and by reason of the enemy’s own advantageous good). Similarly, not wanting for others the goods by which they are induced to love God is also incompatible with perfect love of God.
