Jesus Makes Known His Commandment For Us: Love One Another As I Have Love You
There are two components in this commandment.
As I Have Love You . . . .Love One Another. After experiencing My Love for you, go and Love One Another.
When we hear this commandment, the question is not whether God loves us or even how much God loves us. We know He loves us! God’s love for us is immeasurable. But, . . . How much have we felt God’s Love?
