What does Jesus' love teach about friendship?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus’ love teaches us that true friendship is rooted in self-sacrifice and abiding in His commandments (John 15:14-15).

Jesus offers a profound understanding of friendship through His love and sacrifice, as seen in John 15:14-15, where He says, 'Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.' This indicates that friendship in the context of Christ is not merely an emotional connection but involves mutual commitment to His teachings and commands. The ultimate demonstration of this friendship is His sacrificial love, wherein He lays down His life for those who follow Him. Thus, true friendship should reflect selflessness and a willingness to serve others, inspired by Christ’s love.
