But you could review your position on "Love is 9/10ths of the law and prophets" if you would; the phrase is repeated too often here to make a search effective. And "9/10ths" is even giving me trouble in Bible search, lol. I doubt you mean it the way i rephrased it, do you?

There's no issue in love being 9/10's of law. So what? I agree. But we're not saved by loving people. That's salvation by works. We're saved by the blood. I think we'll lose our salvation by not loving people or God. But that doesn't save us. Perhaps that's the point of what i call your confusion.
