Love One Another


"A new command I give you: Love one another.
As I have loved you, so you must love one another.
By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if
you love one another." (NIV) John 13:34-35


God created us to be in relationship with Himself and
with others. In eternity there will only be 2 things
apart from God. . .God's Word and God's children.
The reality of this should challenge us to seek to
have more God-honoring relationships now. There are
over 50 references in the New Testament about how
we are to relate to "one another." Most of these
passages address our behavior, not just our
attitudes.



"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I
have loved you, so you must love one another. By
this all men will know that you are my disciples, if
you love one another." John 13:34-35


Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor
one another above yourselves. Romans
12:10


You, my brothers, were called to be free. But do not
use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature; rather,
serve one another in love. Galatians 5:13


Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing
with one another in love. Ephesians 4:2


And let us consider how we may spur one another on
toward love and good deeds. Hebrews 10:24



Keep on loving each other as brothers. Hebrews
13:1


Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying
the truth so that you have sincere love for your
brothers, love one another deeply, from the heart. 1
Peter 1:22


Finally, all of you, live in harmony with one another;
be sympathetic, love as brothers, be compassionate
and humble. 1 Peter 3:8


Above all, love each other deeply, because love
covers over a multitude of sins. 1 Peter 4:8



This is the message you heard from the beginning:
We should love one another. I John 3:11


And this is his command: to believe in the name of
his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he
commanded us. I John 3:23


Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes
from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God
and knows God. I John 4:7


Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to
love one another. I John 4:11


No one has ever seen God; but if we love one
another, God lives in us and his love is made
complete in us. I John 4:12


And now, dear lady, I am not writing you a new
command but one we have had from the beginning. I
ask that we love one another. II John 1:5



What do you need to do to better extend your love
to one another?
