Owe no one anything, except to love one another, for the one who loves another has fulfilled the law.
“In everything do to others as you would have them do to you, for this is the Law and the Prophets.
I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another.
Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore, love is the fulfilling of the law.
Pay to all what is due them: taxes to whom taxes are due, revenue to whom revenue is due, respect to whom respect is due, honor to whom honor is due.
For the whole law is summed up in a single commandment, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”
Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.
But the aim of such instruction is love that comes from a pure heart, a good conscience, and sincere faith.
If you really fulfill the royal law according to the scripture, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” you do well.
The children of God and the children of the devil are revealed in this way: all who do not do what is right are not from God, nor are those who do not love a brother or sister.
