Love Fulfills the Law

Some say, love has abolished the law. But the Bible says that love fulfills the law. When we keep the law, we show thereby that we have love. The last six of the Ten Commandments, which regulate our relationship with our neighbor, show us HOW we can love him. At the same time, when we express love toward our neighbor, we love OURSELVES. Each and every commandment that regulates our relationship with our neighbor falls under the heading, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” This sermon shows how we love ourselves when we love our neighbor.
