It is, therefore, \" the law of liberty\"; (Jam 1:25); (Jam 2:12) in contrast with the external law of Moses. Moses' law demands love, (Lev 19:18); (Deu 6:5); (Luk 10:27) Christ's law is love; (Rom 5:5); (Jo1 4:7); (Jo1 4:19); (Jo1 4:20) and so takes the place of the external law by fulfilling it; (Rom 13:10); (Gal 5:14). It is the \"law written in the heart\" under the New Covenant.\n(See Scofield) - (Heb 8:8).\nworld\nGreek, \"kosmos\", means \"mankind\".\n(See Scofield) - (Mat 4:8).\ntransgresseth\nSin\n(See Scofield) - (Rom 3:23).","title":"The Scofield Bible Commentary: 2 John: 2 John Chapter 1","type":"page"}
