ROMANS 13:8-14 LOVE FOR THE DAY OF THE LORD IS NEAR

LET NO DEBT REMAIN OUTSTANDING, EXCEPT THE CONTINUING DEBT TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER, FOR HE WHO LOVES HIS FELLOWMAN HAS FULFILLED THE LAW. THE COMMANDMENTS, "DO NOT COMMIT ADULTERY," "DO NOT MURDER," "DO NOT STEAL," "DO NOT COVET," AND WHATEVER OTHER COMMANDMENTS THERE MAY BE, ARE SUMMED UP IN THIS ONE RULE: "LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF" (YOU MUST LOVE YOURSELF). LOVE DOES NO HARM TO ITS NEIGHBOR. THERFORE LOVE IS THE FULFILLMENT OF THE LAW.

AND DO THIS, UNDERSTANDING THE PRESENT TIME. THE HOUR HAS COME FOR YOU TO WAKE UP FROM YOUR SLUMBER, BECAUSE OUR SALVATION IS NEARER NOW THAN WE FIRST BELIVED. THE NIGHT IS NEARLY OVER; THE DAY IS ALMOST HERE. SO LET US PUT ASIDE THE DEEDS OF DARKNESS, (SINS) AND PUT ON THE ARMOR OF LIGHT (OBEDIENCE TO GOD'S WORD). LET US BEHAVE DECENTLY, AS IN THE DAYTIME, NOT IN ORGIES AND DRUNKENNESS, NOT IN SEXUAL IMMORALITY AND DEBAUCHERY, NOT IN DISSENSION AND JELOUSY. RATHER, CLOTHE YOURSELVES WITH THE LORD JESUS CHRIST,(EPH 6:13-18) AND DO NOT THINK ABOUT HOW TO GRATIFY THE DESIRES OF THE SINFUL NATURE (THE OUTTER MAN).      AMEN!
