“Christ speaks of two debtors, one of whom owed much and the other little, and who both found forgiveness. He asks: Which of these two ought to love more? The answer: The one who has forgiven much. When you love much, you are forgiven much—and when you are forgiven much, you love much. See here the blessed recurrence of salvation in love!” — Danish theologian Soren Kierkegaard (1813-1855), “Two Discourses at Friday Communion” (August 1851), in The Essential Kierkegaard, edited by Howard and Edna Hong (2000)
