The only way we can love each other is through the love of God.

 
In John 15 Jesus is preparing his disciples for His departure. He says to love one another as He loved us. Jesus’ love is sacrificial. Aren’t you glad it isn’t based on how good we are? But it’s hard to love some people. The only way we can love each other is through the love of God.
 
Jesus went on to say that we are no longer servants but friends. That’s intimate. He’s the best friend you will ever have. If you are not His friend you are in trouble. That breaks his heart. God wants to save everybody, not just a few. The door is open. It’s your decision. Jesus said come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest.
 
Greater love hath no man than this: that he lay down his life for a friend.
