Romans 13:8-14; Romans 14:1-2
8 Owe no man anything, save to love one another: for he that loveth his neighbor hath fulfilled the law. You can't go through life without owing anything. Buying a house is a 15- or 30-year loan. Buying a car is 3- or 5-year loan. So don't get in a position where you can't pay back what you owe, to the best of your ability. If you can't pay back your debt, talk to the people and tell them why you can't and make every effort to make it right. This is also talking about little things like borrowing your neighbors' lawn mower or a cup of sugar. Take it back, and take it back better than how you got it. Take back 2 cups of sugar instead of one. Sharpen the lawn mower blades or fill it with gas. Fix up the rental property you are renting. The basic rule of Christianity is love, the Love of Christ.
9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not covet, and if there be any other commandment, it is summed up in this word, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. If you truly love others as you are supposed to under the law of Jesus Christ, you wouldn't commit any of these crimes.
10 Love worketh no ill to his neighbor: love therefore is the fulfillment of the law. Every law of Christ is based upon love. You should love one another as you love yourself.
11 And this, knowing the season, that already it is time for you to awake out of sleep: for now is salvation nearer to us than when we first believed. What kind of sleep? Spiritual sleep. Wake up folks! You're not in the dark anymore; you have God's word so wake up and live it. This is about Jesus Christ coming back and taking us to heaven ......
