John 15:13

Modern English Version

Greater love has no man than this: that a man lay down his life for his friends.

See the chapter Copy

“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep.

Walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave Himself for us as a fragrant offering and a sacrifice to God.

Even as the Father knows Me, so I know the Father. And I lay down My life for the sheep.

“I say to you, My friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that can do no more.

For their sakes I sanctify Myself, that they also may be sanctified by the truth.

By this we know the love of God: that He laid down His life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.
