No one has greater love than this: that he lay down his life for his friends.
“I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd lays down His life for the sheep.
and walk in love, just as Messiah also loved us and gave Himself up for us as an offering and sacrifice to God for a fragrant aroma.
just as the Father knows Me and I know the Father. And I lay down My life for the sheep.
“I say to you, My friends, you should not be afraid of those who kill the body, since after this they have nothing more they can do.
And for their sakes I make Myself holy, so that they also may be made holy in truth.”
We have come to know love by this—Yeshua laid down His life for us, and we also ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters.
