John 13:33-36   NIV (Jesus starts but is interrupted.)

33 “My children, I will be with you only a little longer. You will look for me, and just as I told the Jews, so I tell you now: Where I am going, you cannot come.


34 “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. 35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”

36
Simon Peter asked him, “Lord, where are you going?”

Jesus spent 3.5 years with the disciple’s building relationship and developing them, how many times did He give them a command? He spoke quite a bit in ways that if we recognized who He was and what authority He has, we would certainly receive as a command. But this time He is very clear about this being a command, a NEW command.

Consider what Jesus said in…

John 14:15, 20-21, & 23-24  NIV

15 If you love me, keep my commands 20 On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you. 21 Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them.”…
23 Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. 24 Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me.

John 12:49-50

49 For I did not speak on my own, but the Father who sent me commanded me to say all that I have spoken. 50 I know that his command leads to eternal life. So whatever I say is just what the Father has told me to say.
 

John 15:1-17   NIV

If Jesus is the vine, we are the branches…
