    OBLIGED TO LOVE

    JULY 31, 2016

    JOHN 13:34
    A new commandment I give
    to you, that you love one
    another: just as I have loved
    you, you also are to love one
    another.

    VERSE 1
    Now before the Feast of the
    Passover, when Jesus knew that his
    hour had come to depart out of this
    world to the Father, having loved
    his own who were in the world, he
    loved them to the end.

    OBLIGED TO LOVE

    Passover
    Time to leave
    To the end

    VERSE 4 & 5
    He laid aside his outer garments,
    and taking a towel, tied it around his waist.
    Then he poured water into
    a basin and began to wash the disciples' feet
    and to wipe them with the towel that was
    wrapped around him.

    OBLIGED TO LOVE

    Love being abstract


    Jesus the manifestation
    of Gods love

    OBLIGED TO LOVE

    Verse 12 s query
    Answer: v. 15-16 -example,
    v.17-blessedness of obedience

    Can love be commanded?

    Matthew 22:37

    "You shall love the Lord


    your God with all your
    heart and with all your soul
    and with all your mind.

    JOHN 13:34
    A new commandment I give
    to you, that you love one
    another: just as I have loved
    you, you also are to love one
    another.

    COMMAND

    Why is it new? v.34


    If the command in Mt.22:37 uses the
    verb agape, Godly love, can it be
    done?
    Jesus quantified that love,
    As I have loved (agapao) you

    REASON

    As Jesus manifested Gods


    love through what he did, so
    shall we manifest it by loving
    each other
