—John 15:8-12

This is impossible! We cannot love as Jesus loved! Wasn't he the perfect man? However, 1 John 4:19 tells us that we love because he first loved us. We are incapable of love unless we first know Jesus' love, because we do not know what love is without Jesus. In Romans 5:5 it says that God's love is poured out into us through Jesus Christ. How about that! To love as Jesus loved means simply using his love already poured into us to love others. We don't have to imitate it. we can use the real thing in loving others.
