Let This Be The Only Debt Of One To Another: Love

"Do not be in debt to anyone.  Let this be the only debt of one to another: Love.  The one who loves his or her neighbor fulfills the law.  For the commandments: Do not commit adultery, do not kill, do not covet, and whatever else, are summarized in this one: You will love your neighbor as yourself.  Love cannot do the neighbor any harm; so love fulfills the whole law." - Romans 13:8-10 

(As Paul says, "Give with an open hand."  He passes from the good discharge of ministries to the ministry of love for others.)
