13 John – Recognising a Christian

By Richard

How we recognise a follower of Christ. Simple, by the way (s)he loves other believers.

John 13: 35-35 says this, “Let me give you a new command. Love one another. In the same way I have loved you love one another. This is how everyone recognises that you are my disciples – when they see the love that you have for each other.”

It’s also true that this is one command from Jesus that you cannot fulfil outside of being part of the church community. It is impossible to love if you don’t have a community to love.
