A new commandment - The Body of Christ Week 15
As Christ brings us into new life, he brings us into a different paradigm of living, and one that brings with it a bold and transformative commandment to the body of Christ. In this teaching we examine and unpack this new commandment; what it is, what does it mean, and why is it relevant and essential to us as the body of Christ? This truth continues to grow in visibility and intensity in our hearts!
Recap Points
The principle of “new” came with Jesus.
From this principle of new, Jesus extends a new commandment.
This commandment for us to love one another is centered and dependent on the love of God toward us. (John 13:34)
When you walk in this principle of love – all will know that you are the disciple of Jesus.
When you recognize and accept the love of Jesus, you give yourself permission to draw closer to Him.
As love is perfected in us, we develop the boldness to accept the truth that as Christ is, so are we. (1 John 4:7)
