- Let every person be subject to the governing authorities; for there is no authority except from God, and those authorities that exist have been instituted by God.
- For the same reason you also pay taxes, for the authorities are God's servants, busy with this very thing.
- Pay to all what is due them—taxes to whom taxes are due, revenue to whom revenue is due, respect to whom respect is due, honor to whom honor is due.
- Owe no one anything, except to love one another; for the one who loves another has fulfilled the law.
- The commandments, “You shall not commit adultery; You shall not murder; You shall not steal; You shall not covet”; and any other commandment, are summed up in this word, “Love your neighbor as yourself.”
- Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore, love is the fulfilling of the law.
- Instead, put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to gratify its desires.
