cross

In the upper room, with the cross only hours away, Jesus delivers a profound message: Love is a command, not a feeling, and a pattern that defines discipleship. As Judas departs, leaving darkness in motion, Jesus speaks of glory, obedience, and love. This moment, on the brink of suffering, defines love most clearly. Love is foundational, not optional. Discover how this command transcends comfort and reveals where pride, fear, and self-protection rule. Love patterned after the cross becomes the evidence of His life, teaching, and Spirit remaining active in us.
