Be in debt for nothing, but to have love for one another: for he who has love for his neighbour has kept all the law.

Love Fulfills The Law

Rom 13:8 Do not owe anyone anything — except to love one another. For the one who loves another has fulfilled the Law.
(ISV)

Do you love, if you envy?
Do you love, if you steal?
Do you love, if you kill?
Do you love, when you lust?
Do you love, when you gossip?
The law points to love.1)Rom 13:9 For the commandments, “You must not commit adultery; you must not murder; you must not steal; you must not covet,” and every other commandment are summed up in this statement: “You must love your neighbor as yourself.”
(ISV)

Love does not harm.2)Rom 13:10 Love never does anything that is harmful to its neighbor. Therefore, love is the fulfillment of the Law.
(ISV)

God is love,3)1Jn 4:8 The person who does not love does not know God, because God is love.
1Jn 4:16 We have come to know and rely on the love that God has for us. God is love, and the person who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.
(ISV)

So we believe in Jesus Christ, and love one another.4)Rom 8:39 nor anything above, nor anything below, nor anything else in all creation can separate us from the love of God that is ours in union with the Messiah Jesus, our Lord.
