The love of self is wishing well to oneself alone, and to others only for the sake of self, even to the church, one's country, or any human society.

Why should I do this? W... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=556 The Last Judgment and Babylon Destroyed, Showing That at This Day All the Predictions of the Book of Revelation Have Been Fulfilled - From Things Heard and Seen 39 39. But since it is not known in the Christian world that there is no faith if there is no charity, nor what charity towards the neighbor is, nor even that the will constitutes the man himself, and the thought only in as far as it is derived from the will, therefore, in order that these subjects may come into the light of the understanding, I will adjoin a collection of passages concerning them fr... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=lj§ion=39 The New Jerusalem and Its Heavenly Teaching - From Things Heard from Heaven: Preceded by a Discussion of the New Heaven and the New Earth 23 23.

Man has two faculties, one which is called the will, and the other the understanding (n. 35, 641, 3539, 3623, 5969, 10122). Those two faculties constitute the very man (n. 10076, 10109, 10110, 10264, 10284). The quality of man is according to those two faculties with him (n. 7342, 8885, 9282, 10264, 10284). By them also man is distinguished from beasts, by reason that the understanding of man... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=njhd§ion=35 The New Jerusalem and Its Heavenly Teaching - From Things Heard from Heaven: Preceded by a Discussion of the New Heaven and the New Earth 67 67. It is said for the sake of himself and his own, because he who loves himself also loves his own, who are, in particular, his children and relations, and in general, all who make one with him, and whom he calls his own. To love these is also to love himself, for he regards them as it were in himself, and himself in them. Among those whom he calls his own, are also all they who praise, honor, an... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=njhd§ion=67 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 411 411.

All things were made by Him, and without Him was not anything made that was made. In Him was life, and... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ar§ion=200 The Book of the Apocalypse Revealed, Uncovering the Secrets That Were Foretold There and Have Lain Hidden until Now 832 832.
