John 13:34-35
34 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. 35 By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”
To love others as Jesus loves us is a new command, since He loves us when we do not deserve it. We often love conditionally, seeking something in return or based on how someone measures up to a set of standards (often our own). Followers of Jesus reflect His love for each other. We must imitate Christ.
