From the book “Truth For Today: A Daily Touch of God’s Grace” by John F. MacArthur

Love does no harm to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the law. - Romans 13:10, NKJV

The key to obeying the law of God is love. When we love others, we will automatically obey the law. You won’t commit adultery if you love someone. That’s because love doesn’t defile others or steal purity. Only lust and selfishness do that. If you love someone, your love renders useless the command not to kill. I don’t need to be reminded not to kill people if I love them. When you love someone, you won’t steal from him either. Therefore you don’t need to be told not to steal. Nor will you covet what someone else has when you love him.

Love doesn’t replace the law; it fulfills the law. Through love, you can fulfill God’s love.
