John 15:9-11

New Century Version

⁹ I loved you as the Father loved me. Now remain in my love. ¹⁰ I have obeyed my Father’s commands, and I remain in his love. In the same way, if you obey my commands, you will remain in my love. ¹¹ I have told you these things so that you can have the same joy I have and so that your joy will be the fullest possible joy.
