Kierkegaard - Works of Love Chapter 2

"You shall love your neighbour."

Only when it is a duty to love, only then is it eternally secure.
Love of neighbour brings equality not duplicity. Any differences are only disguises.
You love your neighbour up close or not at all.

1) We have no control over the world.
2) In death there is no reward or consolation for avoiding one's neighbour.
Therefore -place yourself where God can use you.
Where is that? In the position of loving your neighbour.
