John 15:12-14 This is my commandment, That ye love one another as I have loved you. Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. Ye are my friends if ye do whatsoever I command you.
Our relationship with Jesus becomes real at the moment of saving faith.
Our friendship with Jesus is based on our obedience to His commandments---our love for others, our continuous, consistent service to Him.
His greatest commandment is to love others as He loved us. That will make friends.
---What a friend we have in Jesus---All our sins and griefs to bear
---What a privilege to carry---Everything to God in prayer
