| Romans 13:8
| Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth his neighbour, hath fulfilled the law.
| \f + \fr 13:8-9\ft But that you love one another. This is a debt, says St. Chrysostom, which we are always to be paying, and yet always remains, and is to be paid again. --- He that loveth his neighbour, hath fulfilled the law. Nay, he that loves his neighbour, as he ought, loves him for God's sake, and so complies with the other great precept of loving God: and upon these two precepts (as Christ himself taught us, Matthew 22:40.) depends the whole law and the prophets.
