To exclude the world of work from the command to love our neighbor as ourselves is to make the same mistake we saw in the previous chapter on good works. The more complete and biblical view of good works that we have seen, in fact, necessarily entails that we also have this more comprehensive view of love. For if good works are everything we do in faith, including our work and the demands of our daily lives, then surely our work lives are not an exception to the command to love others as ourselves.
