*
Owe no one anything ,
except to love one another ;
for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law .
*
For the commandments , "
You shall not commit adultery ," "
You shall not murder ," "
You shall not steal ," "
You shall not give false testimony ," "
You shall not covet ," {
TR adds "
You shall not give false testimony ,"} {
Exodus strkjv @
20:13-15 ,
17 ;
Deuteronomy strkjv @
5:17-19 ,
21 }
and whatever other commandments there are ,
are all summed up in this saying ,
namely , "
You shall love your neighbor as yourself ." {
Leviticus strkjv @
19:18 }

Love doesn '
t harm a neighbor .
Love therefore is the fulfillment of the law .
*
Do this ,
knowing the time ,
that it is already time for you to awaken out of sleep ,
for salvation is now nearer to us than when we first believed .
*
The night is far gone ,
and the day is near .
Let '
s therefore throw off the works of darkness ,
and let '
s put on the armor of light .
*
Let us walk properly ,
as in the day ;
not in reveling and drunkenness ,
not in sexual promiscuity and lustful acts ,
and not in strife and jealousy .
*
But put on the Lord Jesus Christ ,
and make no provision for the flesh ,
for its lusts .
