John 13:35

Now I beg you, brothers, through the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfected together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

Jesus therefore said to those Jews who had believed him, “If you remain in my word, then you are truly my disciples.

Yahweh is good to all. His tender mercies are over all his works.

Even so, let your light shine before men; that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God.

that they may all be one; even as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be one in us; that the world may believe that you sent me.

Finally, all of you be like-minded, compassionate, loving as brothers, tenderhearted, courteous,

My son, fear Yahweh and the king. Don’t join those who are rebellious;

“Most certainly I tell you, he who hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life, and doesn’t come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.

Let brotherly love continue.

But God’s love has most certainly been perfected in whoever keeps his word. This is how we know that we are in him:

See how great a love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God! For this cause the world doesn’t know us, because it didn’t know him.

See how good and how pleasant it is for brothers to live together in unity!

Jesus answered him, “If a man loves me, he will keep my word. My Father will love him, and we will come to him, and make our home with him.

for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me, and have believed that I came from God.

Therefore give everyone what you owe: if you owe taxes, pay taxes; if customs, then customs; if respect, then respect; if honor, then honor.

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new.

I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.

Only let your way of life be worthy of the Good News of Christ, that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your state, that you stand firm in one spirit, with one soul striving for the faith of the Good News;

He who loves his brother remains in the light, and there is no occasion for stumbling in him.

I was glad when they said to me, “Let’s go to Yahweh’s house!”

“But I tell you who hear: love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,

But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing back; and your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High; for he is kind toward the unthankful and evil.

I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them through your name which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are.

I made known to them your name, and will make it known; that the love with which you loved me may be in them, and I in them.”

Yet he didn’t leave himself without witness, in that he did good and gave you rains from the sky and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.”

In love of the brothers be tenderly affectionate to one another; in honor preferring one another;

being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without defect in the middle of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you are seen as lights in the world,

Above all these things, walk in love, which is the bond of perfection.

No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God remains in us, and his love has been perfected in us.

In this love has been made perfect among us, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment, because as he is, even so we are in this world.

It is well with the man who deals graciously and lends. He will maintain his cause in judgment.

He who has a generous eye will be blessed; for he shares his food with the poor.

I will give them one heart and one way, that they may fear me forever, for their good, and the good of their children after them.

But if I do them, though you don’t believe me, believe the works, that you may know and believe that the Father is in me, and I in the Father.”

One who has my commandments and keeps them, that person is one who loves me. One who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will reveal myself to him.”

I in them, and you in me, that they may be perfected into one; that the world may know that you sent me and loved them, even as you loved me.

Father, I desire that they also whom you have given me be with me where I am, that they may see my glory, which you have given me, for you loved me before the foundation of the world.

For as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of the body, being many, are one body; so also is Christ.

For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that you through his poverty might become rich.

And be kind to one another, tender hearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you.

If therefore there is any exhortation in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any tender mercies and compassion,

who delivered us out of the power of darkness, and translated us into the Kingdom of the Son of his love,

We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. He who doesn’t love his brother remains in death.

He who keeps his commandments remains in him, and he in him. By this we know that he remains in us, by the Spirit which he gave us.

By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep his commandments.

This is love, that we should walk according to his commandments. This is the commandment, even as you heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it.

Abram said to Lot, “Please, let there be no strife between you and me, and between your herdsmen and my herdsmen; for we are relatives.

Then he said, “I have sinned; yet please honor me now before the elders of my people, and before Israel, and come back with me, that I may worship Yahweh your God.”

Can his armies be counted? On whom does his light not arise?

All day long he deals graciously, and lends. His offspring is blessed.

Call on me in the day of trouble. I will deliver you, and you will honor me.”

He who has pity on the poor lends to Yahweh; he will reward him.

The poor man and the oppressor have this in common: Yahweh gives sight to the eyes of both.

This is the end of the matter. All has been heard. Fear God and keep his commandments; for this is the whole duty of man.

to provide for those who mourn in Zion, to give to them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness, that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of Yahweh, that he may be glorified.

They don’t say in their heart, ‘Let’s now fear Yahweh our God, who gives rain, both the former and the latter, in its season, who preserves to us the appointed weeks of the harvest.’

Whoever gives one of these little ones just a cup of cold water to drink in the name of a disciple, most certainly I tell you he will in no way lose his reward.”

I and the Father are one.”

I know that you always listen to me, but because of the multitude standing around I said this, that they may believe that you sent me.”

A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also love one another.

Pilate therefore said to him, “Are you a king then?” Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king. For this reason I have been born, and for this reason I have come into the world, that I should testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to my voice.”

If Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the spirit is alive because of righteousness.

But now faith, hope, and love remain—these three. The greatest of these is love.

subjecting yourselves to one another in the fear of Christ.

that you may walk worthily of the Lord, to please him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God,

Seeing you have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth through the Spirit in sincere brotherly affection, love one another from the heart fervently,

If anyone speaks, let it be as it were the very words of God. If anyone serves, let it be as of the strength which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

But may the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.

that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us. Yes, and our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son, Jesus Christ.

This is how we know that we know him: if we keep his commandments.

Beloved, let’s love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves has been born of God, and knows God.

for the words which you have given me I have given to them, and they received them, and knew for sure that I came from you. They have believed that you sent me.

that you may be children of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the just and the unjust.

Honor all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.

“In this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; and so you will be my disciples.
