The Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Romans was written from Corinth about A.D. 58. The purpose of the letter is to secure the active support of the church in Rome for his missionary program. Paul stresses the universality of man’s sin but that God saves all men through faith in Christ. He discusses the place of Israel in God’s plan of salvation and how Christians should conduct themselves.

Romans 13

13:9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
