you have heard that it was said love your neighbor and hate your enemy but I tell you love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you that you may be children of your father in Heaven he causes his son to rise on the evil and the good and sends reain on the righteous and the unrighteous if you love those who love you what reward will you get are not even the tax collectors doing that and if you greet only your own people what are you doing more than others do not even pagans do that
be perfect therefore as your heavenly father is [Music] perfect as the father has loved me so have I loved you now remain in my love if you keep my commands you will remain in my love just as I have kept my father's commands and remain in his love I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete my command is this love each other as I have loved you greater love has no one than this to lay down one's life for one's friends you are my
friends if you do what I command I no longer call you servants because a servant does not know his master's business instead I have called you friends for everything that I learned from my father I have made known to you you did not choose me but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit fruit that will last and so that whatever you ask in my name the father will give you this is my command love each [Music] [Music] other hearing that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees the Pharisees got together
one of them an expert in the law tested him with this question teacher which is the greatest commandment in the law Jesus replied love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind this is the first and greatest commandment and the second is like it love your neighbor as yourself all the law and the prophets hang on these two [Music] Commandments Jesus said now the son of man is glorified and God is glorified in him if God is glorified in him God will glorify the son in
himself and will glorify him at once [Music] my children I will be with you only a little longer you will look for me and just as I told the Jews so I tell you now where I am going you cannot come a new command I give you love one another as I have loved you so you must love one another by this everyone will know that you are my disciples if you love one another [Music]
