Part 8 in a series on the Upper Room Discourse and Jesus’ teaching on: Simple Faith
Jesus’ main command, although He doesn’t get to explaining it until late in the teaching, is to love. But not just any kind of love: to love as He has loved. In saying that, Jesus changes what the standard of love is, and where love comes from. No longer is it about basic human rights and common courtesy – it’s about living in the testimony of how God feels about human beings. It changes our approach to loving our neighbor to one that’s rooted and grounded in faith and in the testimony of Jesus, so that it’s Jesus loving them through us.
