Fulfilling the Royal Law Yes indeed, it is good when you truly obey our Lord's royal command found in the Scriptures: “Love your neighbour as yourself.” But if you pay special attention to the rich [show partiality], you are committing a sin, for you are guilty of breaking that law. James 2:8-9 – N.L.T. #3

Obedience Flows out of Love Because we are already saved by the blood of the Lamb we are to live lives in obedience to the law of the Lamb. #4

The Royal Law is Set by the Lord Jesus replied, “ ‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. A second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbour as yourself.’ The entire law and all the demands of the prophets are based on these two commandments.” – Matthew 22:37-40 NLT #5

The Royal Law at Work The Parable of the Good Samaritan. Whether the person is ‘in’ or ‘out’ of the ‘club’ they are to be treated the same. It is not who you know that is important, but who you are. As a child of the King, live by the King’s Royal Law. #6

The Royal Law, or Your Way? #7

The Royal Law Mercy triumphs over judgement when you treat all people with impartiality. Just as God loves us unconditionally, let us love others unconditionally. Our motive must be to love our neighbour in the same way we love ourselves. #8
