Why does Jesus call Love One Another a New commandment?
Love One Another, was not one of the first Ten Commandments. ''Exodus 20:1-17''. Not in one of the commandments does God say for us to love others. ''1'' Thou shalt have no other gods before me ''5'' Honour they father and mother... This is a type of love, but it is not a commandment to love others. Each Commandment tells us what not to do. The New Commandment directs us to `love` our neighbor in which we don`t want to covet anything that belongs to them. ''Commandment #10'' When you `love` someone, the last thing in the world you would want to do is try and take something that belongs to them, because of your jealousy. Love One Another is the step which helps us to follow the Ten Commandments as God meant for us to.

Jesus call Love One Another a New commandment because this is one of the important things in life. Without love, your life is nothing..absolutely nothing. That is why God is Love.God has given us the ability and the power to love one another, expect nothing in return..=''

Why does Jesus call Love One Another a New commandment?
In the Old Testament days. eye for eye, and tooth for a tooth was the rule. When Jesus came and spreached he for the FIRST time taught us to LOVE our ENEMIES and it was not worth loving the one who loves you, but to love those who hate you. The old testament rule was completely abolished and the LOVE ONE ANOTHER rule was established once in for all.

LOve one another
Despite that people rejected the truth Jesus Christ still love us. He called Love one another a new commandment because love is peace, unity, indiscrimination, sharing etc. Brethren in the illustration statd above if anyone can love one another He/She has found those benefits in His/her lives. Have you seen anybody offended himself and stated beating himself? That is the love God is talking about. Love your neighbour as you love yourself!

jesus command of love
Jesus had nothing but love for all men. He loved the down trodden, the criminals the poor and the sick. many times we turn away from undesireables such as these. Jesus did. His example of love should be in our hearts at all times.

Why does Jesus call Love One Another a New commandment?
Because if we really love God with all our heart, soul and mind, then we will be bound to love others since they are all God`s creations. It will give testimony to others of Jesus Love for us and all men.

Why does Jesus call Love One Another a New commandment?
Love one another as I have loved you , so that you shall have peace among you and within you.While doing this people will see you and recognize that you are my disciples.Every person on earth today is aspiring to become the best or recognized in an own field. Become a leader a good one to be precise. these and other aspirations shall start from yourself.You can not give what you do not have. Imagine a teacher lecturing in an auditorium with 400 attendants and suddenly starts frowning? All faces in that place shall mimic his frowning too, likewise if he beams a smile same will interpolate through the others. In like manners the greatest and perfect man commands we love one another as ourselves. As no one hates own body.When you want to be a good leader you must first be a good follower. The measure with which you give is the measure with which you receive.
