John 15:16
14 You are My friends if you do what I command you.
15 No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not understand what his master is doing. But I have called you friends, because everything I have learned from My Father I have made known to you.
You did not choose Me, but I chose you. And I appointed you to go and bear fruit—fruit that will remain—so that whatever you ask the Father in My name, He will give you.
17 This is My command to you: Love one another.
18 If the world hates you, understand that it hated Me first.
