John 15:9-15

NSB(i) 9 »I love you just as the Father has loved me. Remain in my love. 10 »If you obey my commandments you will remain in my love. I have obeyed my Father’s commandments and remain in his love. 11 »I spoke these things in order that my joy may continue with you and your joy may be made full. 12 »This is my commandment, that you love one another, even as I have loved you. 13 »No man has greater love then this that a man lay down his life for his friends. 14 »You are my friends if you do the things that I command you. 15 »I no longer call you servants for the servant does not know what the lord does. I have called you friends; for all things that I heard from my Father, I have made known to you.
