"What offering should I bring when I bow down to worship the LORD God Most High? Should I try to please him by sacrificing yearling calves? Will thousands of sheep or rivers of olive oil make God satisfied with me? Should I sacrified to the LORD my first-born child as payment for my terrible sins? The LORD God has told us what is right and what he demands: 'See that justice is done, let mercy be your first concern, and humbly obey your God.'" --Micah 6:6-8
"Let love be your only debt! If you love others, you have done all that the Law demands. In the Law there are many commands, such as, 'Be faithful in marriage. Do not murder. Do not steal. Do not want what belongs to others.' But all of these are summed up in the command that says, 'Love others as much as you love yourself.' No one who loves others will harm them. So love is all that the Law demands." --Romans 13:8-10
"Do your best to improve your faith. You can do this by adding goodness, understanding, self-control, patience, devotion to God, concern for others, and love. If you keep growing in this way, it will show that what you know about our Lord Jesus Christ has made your lives useful and meaningful. But if you don't grown, you are like someone who is nearsighted or blind, and you have forgotten that your past sins are forgiven." --2 Peter 1:5-9
"Real love isn't our love for God, but his love for us, God sent his Song to be the sacrifice by which our sins are forgiven. Dear friends, since God loved us this much, we must love each other.

God has given us his Spirit. that is how we know that we are one with him, just as he is one with us." --1 John 4:10-13
