The third provoking Argument.
Thirdly, Love is debt. You owe love, *and should owe nothing else to one another. Christians, will ye not be honest men and pay your debt? Rom. 13.8, 9, 10. when you love one another, you fulfil the Law, and pay your debt.
- *3 Argument. Aut hoe non est Evangelium, aut nos non sumus Evangelici.
Is it not strange that Christians should be such Antinomians? this is Christs Law, Love one another; now you are Antinomians if ye love not one another; certainly a man that is for love, is no Antinomian: for the Law is fulfilled in this one word, viz. Love. Look to it Christians, you will never be out of the danger of being arrested one by another, till you pay your debt, and love one another.
