Johannes 13,34

Love for othersFollowing Jesus

32 Hvis Gud er æret i ham, vil Gud også ære ham i seg selv, og vil gjøre det straks.

33 Små barn, jeg er hos dere bare en liten stund til. Dere vil lete etter meg, og slik jeg sa til jødene, sier jeg nå til dere: Der jeg går, kan dere ikke komme.

Et nytt bud gir jeg dere: Elsk hverandre. Som jeg har elsket dere, skal dere elske hverandre.

35 Det er ved dette, derfor, at alle vil vite at dere er mine disipler: at dere har kjærlighet til hverandre."

36 Simon Peter sa til ham: "Herre, hvor går du?" Jesus svarte: "Der jeg går, kan du ikke følge meg nå, men du skal følge senere."
