Love Thy Neighbor

Owe no man any thing, but to love one another:
for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.
For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery,
Thou shalt not kill,
Thou shalt not steal,
Thou shalt not bear false witness,
Thou shalt not covet;
and if there be any other commandment,
it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely,
Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
Love worketh no ill to his neighbour:
therefore love is the fulfilling of the law
. Romans 13:8-10

Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever. Hebrews 13:8

Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart:
thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour,
and not suffer sin upon him.
Thou shalt not avenge,
nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people,
but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself:
I am the Lord
. Leviticus 19:17-18

And one of the scribes came,
and having heard them reasoning together,
and perceiving that He had answered them well, asked Him,
Which is the first commandment of all?
And Jesus answered him, 
The first of all the commandments is,
Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:
And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart,
and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.
And the second is like, namely this,
Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
There is none other commandment greater than these.
Mark 12:28-31

But I say unto you, Love your enemies,
bless them that curse you,
do good to them that hate you,
and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven:
for He maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good,
and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
Matthew 5:44-45

And now abide faith, hope, love, these three;
but the greatest of these is love. 1 Corinthians 13:13
