Words of Jesus speaking to His disciples shortly before his passion.

" I give to you a New Commandment; love one another; as I have loved you, so you are to love one another! If there is love among you, then everyone will know that you are my disciples!"

This is the second Sunday running that we looking at Christian love. Should I have changed the set reading? No! This was a new commandment which Jesus laid before his friends and followers; and we are their inheritors. This is a personal commandment for you and me. Can we be commanded to LOVE? Well yes, if the love is the kind that Jesus had for individuals and groups! Yes! Because it's revolutionary. Yes! Because its not a matter of feeling but of choice.
