Why should Christians love one another?

Answered in 5 sources

Christians are commanded to love one another as an expression of their relationship with Christ, according to John 15:17.

In John 15:17, Jesus explicitly commands His followers to love one another. This command is not only a response to His love but also serves as a necessary bond among believers, especially in the face of a hostile world. Christian love is vital as it reflects the nature of Christ and serves as a witness to others of their discipleship. Furthermore, the command to love indicates the need for unity among Christians to stand firm against the common challenges posed by the world’s hatred. The New Testament repeatedly emphasizes this, revealing that love among believers is foundational to the church's testimony and effectiveness in the world.
