My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no-one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command. I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.
How is it that I can stand in worship with my arms raised and hands unfolded toward heaven, when Christ had nails driven through his palms in my place?
