John 15:9-15

9Just as 1the Father has loved Me, I also have loved you; remain in My love. 10 2If you keep My commandments, you will remain in My love; just as 3I have kept My Father’s commandments and remain in His love. 11 4These things I have spoken to you so that My joy may be in you, and that your 5joy may be made full.

12“This is 6My commandment, that you love one another, just as I have loved you. 13 7Greater love has no one than this, that a person will 8lay down his life for his friends. 14You are My 9friends if 10you do what I command you. 15No longer do I call you slaves, for the slave does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, because 11all things that I have heard from My Father I have made known to you.
