- Every person is to be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those which exist are established by God.
- For because of this you also pay taxes, for rulers are servants of God, devoting themselves to this very thing.
- Pay to all what is due them: tax to whom tax is due; custom to whom custom; respect to whom respect; honor to whom honor.
- Owe nothing to anyone except to love one another; for the one who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the Law.
- For this, “You shall not commit adultery, You shall not murder, You shall not steal, You shall not covet,” and if there is any other commandment, it is summed up in this saying, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”
- Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the Law.
- But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh in regard to its lusts.
