--John 13:5-17 --- I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you. --John 13:14 --- FOR thousands of years, the Jewish people had only the Law telling them what to do and what not to do. But then came Jesus Christ, who showed them how to live the life God had been telling them about all along. Jesus didn't just say, "Be humble"; He "humbled Himself" (Phil. 2:8). He didn't just say, "Forgive others"; He forgave us (Col. 3:13). He didn't just say, "Love God and your neighbors"; He demonstrated love by His actions (John 15:12).
Christ's perfect example of love shows how great God's love is for us and how we are to show His love to others. ---------- -LOVE IS GOD'S WILL IN ACTION!
