Praise God because our righteousness is based on the work of Jesus Christ. When we stand before God it won't be based on how we were able to keep the Ten Commandments but it will be based on how we managed our relationships with each other. If we love God and love one another we will fulfill the Ten Commandments because the essence of the Ten Commandments is love and relationships.
Romans 13:8-10 Owe no one anything except to love one another, for he who loves another has fulfilled the law. For the commandments, "You shall not commit adultery,'' "You shall not murder,'' "You shall not steal,'' "You shall not bear false witness,'' "You shall not covet,'' and if there is any other commandment, are all summed up in this saying, namely, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself.'' Love does no harm to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.
It's all so very simple.
