John 15:9-14

9As the Father has loved me, I also have loved you: abide in my love.

10If ye shall keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love, as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love.

11I have spoken these things to you that my joy may be in you, and your joy be full.

12This is my commandment, that ye love one another, as I have loved you.

13No one has greater love than this, that one should lay down his life for his friends.

14Ye are my friends if ye practise whatever I command you.
