John 15:13

there cannot be greater love than that of a man, who lays down his life for his friends.

I am the true pastor: the true pastor exposes his life for the sheep.

(as the father and I are known to one another:) and I lay down my life for them.

for at the appointed time Christ died for us, when we were in a helpless, sinful state.

for Christ loved us, and for us gave himself an offering and a sacrifice acceptable to God.

Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth, is born of God, and knoweth God.
