A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.

All the commandments: You shall not commit adultery, you shall not kill, you shall not steal, you shall not covet, and so on, are summed up in this single command: You must love your neighbor as yourself.

As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you.

For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same?

If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them. And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same.

If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven.
