JULY 31, 2016

JOHN 13:34
A new commandment I give
to you, that you love one
another: just as I have loved
you, you also are to love one
another.

VERSE 1
Now before the Feast of the
Passover, when Jesus knew that his
hour had come to depart out of this
world to the Father, having loved
his own who were in the world, he
loved them to the end.

OBLIGED TO LOVE

Passover
Time to leave
To the end

VERSE 4 & 5
He laid aside his outer garments,
and taking a towel, tied it around his waist.
Then he poured water into
a basin and began to wash the disciples' feet
and to wipe them with the towel that was
wrapped around him.

OBLIGED TO LOVE

Love being abstract


Jesus the manifestation
of Gods love

OBLIGED TO LOVE

Verse 12 s query
Answer: v. 15-16 -example,
v.17-blessedness of obedience

Can love be commanded?

Matthew 22:37

"You shall love the Lord


your God with all your
heart and with all your soul
and with all your mind.

JOHN 13:34
A new commandment I give
to you, that you love one
another: just as I have loved
you, you also are to love one
another.

COMMAND

Why is it new? v.34


If the command in Mt.22:37 uses the
verb agape, Godly love, can it be
done?
Jesus quantified that love,
As I have loved (agapao) you

REASON

As Jesus manifested Gods


love through what he did, so
shall we manifest it by loving
each other
