495: A New Commandment | John 13:34

We are just a few days away from Easter Sunday, and we are looking at a verse every day this week out of the last week of Jesus's life here on earth. Today's One Verse comes from the Last Supper. Jesus gives us a new command. You might remember from earlier this week that Jesus quoted the Old Testament with He was asked what the greatest commandment was. He was answering an "expert" in the law who was trying to trick Him. So Jesus quoted the Old Testament law to turn the tables on this expert. But today Jesus is in the upper room with his closest disciples and gives us all a new commandment. What is this new commandment that Jesus gives us? To love one another as Jesus has loved us. As we enter Easter weekend, let's remember how much Jesus gave for us because of His Love and show that same love for others that we encounter each and every day.
