Matthew 22
35 Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,
36 Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
37 Jesus said unto him,
Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
38 This is the first and great commandment.
39 And the second is like unto it,
Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
Lev 19:18 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.
Strictly speaking "Loving your neighbor as yourself" is not in the 10 commandments. It is in the "Law of Moses" as defined by Aquila.
However if you love your neighbor as yourself, you will be fulfilling the last 5 commands
but also doing a lot more than that.
If you keep the literal commands, you will hate your brother and yet still think you've not sinned. But GRACE shows us that HATING is just as bad as killing.
The DEMANDS OF GRACE FAR OUTWEIGHS THE DEMANDS OF THE LAW
