According to traditional evangelical Christian belief, the author of Romans 13:9-10 is the apostle Paul. Paul is considered the author of the Book of Romans, which is one of the most important and influential letters in the New Testament.

Evangelical Christians believe that Paul was chosen by Jesus and received direct revelation from God, and his writings are considered inspired and authoritative for the Christian faith. Paul’s letters, including the Book of Romans, are highly esteemed for their theological depth and practical application to the Christian life.

In Romans 13:9-10, Paul writes about the importance of love, stating, “For this, ‘You shall not commit adultery, You shall not murder, You shall not steal, You shall not covet,’ and if there is any other commandment, it is summed up in this saying, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.”

Evangelical Christians view these verses as a powerful reminder of the centrality of love in the Christian life, and the importance of living in accordance with God’s commandments. They believe that Paul’s teachings in this passage continue to be relevant and transformative for believers today.
