Love
One Another As I Have Loved You
"A
new commandment I give to you, that you love one another as
I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this
all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love
for one another." (1)
"This
is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved
you. Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's
life for his friends. You are My friends if you do whatever
I command you. No longer do I call you servants, for a servant
does not know what his master is doing; but I have called
you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I
have made known to you. You did not choose Me, but I chose
you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and
that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father
in My name He may give you. These things I command you, that
you love one another." (2)
