Love is the Fulfillment of the Law



The only thing you should owe to anyone is love for one another. For to love the other person is to fulfill the law. All these: You shall not commit adultery, you shall not kill, you shall not steal, you shall not covet, and all the other commandments are summed up in this single phrase: You must love your neighbor as yourself. Love can cause no harm to your neighbor; and so love is the fulfillment of the Law.

---Romans 13:8-10
