Charles Spurgeon Commentary John 15:12

"This is my commandment, that ye love one another, even as I have loved you." — John 15:12 (ASV)

This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.

I am sure you will never love each other too much. You cannot go beyond this rule: Love one another, as I have loved you.

This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.

O beloved, do keep this commandment! Overlook each other's infirmities. Bear with each other's faults. Love one another as Christ has loved us.

This is my commandment, That you love one another as I have loved you.

Are you doing this, brothers and sisters in Christ, really loving one another? Do you never pick holes in each other's character? Do you never judge a fellow-Christian harshly? If you do these things, rebuke yourself, and cease from this evil habit at once, for your Lord says to you, This is my commandment, That you love one another, as I have loved you.
