1251 entries for this category: Why does Jesus call Love One Another a New commandment? Love one another is a new commandment because it covers all the ten commandments, and goes further to include other values worthy observing, and the way it should be done but not among the ten commandments.

Why does Jesus call Love One Another a New commandment? Jesus mission on earth was to reveal the Father to the whole world, yet the jewish world at that time was under the domain of the Law and the Prophets. His mission was reaching the climax, and Jesus had started preparing his disciples for- life after him. He needed to cement the law of love into their hearts and minds. The law of love entailed several dimensions: Loving one another, loving the evil and ungrateful, the master becoming the servant, doing first by example before demanding that others do to you, etc. Jesus knew well that the rest of his world ministry would now have to depend on the Disciples, that is why he issued them the new commandment to love one another. In this way, the world would know that the disciples belong to jesus. It was like giving his followers a new uniform, the color of love.

Love Hello dear friends.I have been trying to read my bible and somehow I have come to understand that we are called children of God b`se of his love.
Like the bible says that for he loved us somuch that he gave his only begotten son that however believes him should not perish but have eternal life ''John 3:16''.I have come to understand that it`s love that can take us to heaven.loving one another as you love yourself this is why even the bible tells us that what we want other people to do for us, we should do it for them because for Jesus knew that we love ourselves so much and in that we should give it back to others without descrimination.Love is really too big but the bible emphasizes us to try as much as possible to love one another as the father loves us.
