TEACHINGS ABOUT CHARITY

From what has been said about self-love and love of the world it is evident that they are the root of all evils; and since they are the root of all evils they are the origin of all falsities. And conversely love to the Lord and love towards the neighbour are the source of every form of good; and since they are the source of every form of good they are the fount of all truths.
