John
13:31-38
31
When he was gone, Jesus said,
'NOW
THE SON OF MAN IS GLORIFIED
'Now
is the Son of Man Glorified
And
God is Glorified in Him.
32
If God is Glorified in Him,
God
will glorify the Son in Himself,
And
will Glorify Him as once.
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
ALL MEN WILL KNOW THAT YOU ARE MY DISCIPLES
IF
YOU LOVE ONE ANOTHER.'
36
Simon Peter asked Him,
'Lord,
where are You going?'
Jesus
replied, 'Where I am going, you cannot follow now,
BUT
YOU WILL FOLLOW LATER.'
37
Peter asked, 'Lord, why can't I follow You now?
I
will lay my life for You.'
38
Then Jesus answered,
'Will
you really lay down your life for Me?
I
tell you the Truth, before the rooster crows,
YOU
WILL DISOWN ME THREE TIMES!'
(John
13:31-38)
Christ
Jesus was Glorified
In
His willingness to go to the Cross
And
purchase Forgiveness of Sin
For
all who would believe.
All
men will know the followers of Christ Jesus
By
their Love for one another.
The
Disciples could not follow Jesus to Heaven
At
that time,
But
they were to follow later.
Peter
without the Baptism in the Holy Spirit
Would
Deny Jesus Three Times.
But
after receiving the Baptism in the Holy Spirit,
He
would willingly go to his Death
For
Christ Jesus.
