The New Commandment

When he had gone out, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man has been glorified, and God has been glorified in him. If God has been glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself and will glorify him at once. Little children, I am with you only a little longer. You will look for me; and as I said to the Jews so now I say to you, ‘Where I am going, you cannot come.’ I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” (John 13:31-35, NRSV)

And they will know we are Christians by our…

Patriotism?
Rule following?
Pointing out other’s sins?
Crosses we wear?
Choice of music?

No none of these will show we are Christians. They will know we are Christians by our LOVE! If we love one another. How will the world see Jesus if it sees us fighting and calling out each other?

The only way for the world to see love is if we show love.

So, love as He loved you.
