Give what is deserved

Give what is deserved – Rom 13:7-8

Vs 7 – Give to everyone what you owe and they deserve.  Paul then list four examples,
taxes, revenue, respect and honor.  There is a law of sowing and reaping here.  No matter
what you sow you will get that back by the Lord.
Vs 8 – Paul is giving practical advice.  Owe no man anything.  Keep your accounts with
Others short and free of debt.  We have only one debt to owe.  It is loving our fellow man
and when we do that we are fulfilling the requirements of the law.  The law of love is loving God, ourselves and others.  If we do this we will be on track doing the will of God and touching others for Christ.
