when you ^aenlarge my heart! ^{▼▼Or for you set my heart free}

Matthew 5:17-20

Christ Came to Fulfill the Law

17 ^c“Do not think that I have come to abolish ^dthe Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but ^eto fulfill them. 18 For truly, I say to you, ^funtil heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the Law until all is accomplished. 19 ^gTherefore whoever relaxes ^hone of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least ⁱin the kingdom of heaven, but whoever does them and teaches them will be called great ^jin the kingdom of heaven. 20 For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds ^kthat of the scribes and Pharisees, you ^lwill never enter the kingdom of heaven.

Romans 7:22

22 For ^mI delight in the law of God, ⁿin my inner being,

Romans 7:25

25 Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself serve the law of God with my mind, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.

Romans 8:4

4 in order that ^othe righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, ^pwho walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

Romans 13:8-10

Fulfilling the Law Through Love

8 ^qOwe no one anything, except to love each other, for ^rthe one who loves another has fulfilled the law. 9 For the commandments, ^s“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: ^t“You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 10 Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore ^ulove is the fulfilling of the law.

1 Corinthians 7:19-22

19 ^vFor neither circumcision counts for anything nor uncircumcision, but ^wkeeping the commandments of God. 20 ^xEach one should remain in the condition in which he was called. 21 Were you a bondservant ^{▼▼Or slave; also twice in verse 22 (for the contextual rendering of the Greek word doulos, see Preface)} when called? Do not be concerned about it. (But if you can gain your freedom, avail yourself of the opportunity.) 22 For he who was called in the Lord as a bondservant is ^za freedman of the Lord. Likewise he who was free when called is ^aaa bondservant of Christ.
