John 15:9-17
John 15:9-17
9 As the Father has loved Me, so have I loved you. Remain in My love.
10 If you keep My commandments, you will remain in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and remain in His love.
11 I have told you these things so that My joy may be in you and your joy may be complete.
12 This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.
13 Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.
14 You are My friends if you do what I command you.
15 No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not understand what his master is doing. But I have called you friends, because everything I have learned from My Father I have made known to you.
16 You did not choose Me, but I chose you. And I appointed you to go and bear fruit—fruit that will remain—so that whatever you ask the Father in My name, He will give you.
17 This is My command to you: Love one another.
