JESUS LOVES YOU *

Jn 13:34 “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.
Jn 15:9-10 “As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father’s commands and remain in his love.
Jn 15:13 Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.
Ro 8:35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?
Ro 8:37-39 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors h through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
