Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.
I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep.
and walk in love, just as Christ loved us and gave Himself up for us as a fragrant sacrificial offering to God.
For at just the right time, while we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.
just as the Father knows Me and I know the Father. And I lay down My life for the sheep.
Beloved, let us love one another, because love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.
