This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved
you.
Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for
his friends.
You are my friends if you do what I command you.
No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what
his master is doing;
but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I
have made known to you.
You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you
should go and bear much fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that
whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.
These things I command you, so that you will love one another.
