When Judas was gone, Jesus said, “Now the Human One has been glorified, and God has been glorified in him. If God has been glorified in him, God will also glorify the Human One in himself and will glorify him immediately. Little children, I’m with you for a little while longer. You will look for me—but, just as I told the Jewish leaders, I also tell you now—‘Where I’m going, you can’t come.’ “I give you a new commandment: Love each other. Just as I have loved you, so you also must love each other. This is how everyone will know that you are my disciples, when you love each other.” (John 13:31-35, CEB)
Was this commandment really new? Jesus and all people knew they were to love God and love neighbor. These are from the law.
Love each other wasn’t new, but I believe it was Jesus telling the disciples, this is what is most important. Love.
The world will know you follow me if you love.
Loving People. Loving God.
