And this commandment we have from Him [Jesus], that the one
who loves God should love his brother also. (1John 4:21)
Often repeated in the New Testament
is this call for us to love one another. It is first commanded by Jesus in John
13:34-35 right after Judas leaves the Upper Room to betray the Master. God knew
that with some who would become Christians, this would be hard to do; thus the
repetition. Is there some whom who find hard to love? The command is never stated
with conditions attached, so show some love. John 13:35 says, “By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love
for one another.”
