Before H is voluntary death
Jesus saxl, " A s the F atlie i
knowelh me, even so know Itlie
F a ttie r; ami I lay down m y life
fo i the sheep . . .
' I h e re fo ie doth the Fathei
love me, because I lay down my
I lie , that 1 m ight take It again.
I his commandment have 1 re
ceived of m y F a th e r." (John
10:15, 17-18) Jesus explained
further:
“ G reate r love hath no man
than th is, that a man lay down
his life fo r his f i lends.
" Y e are my fi lends, IF YE
IX ' WHATSOEVER I COM
M AND 5 o f ." ( J o h n 15:13-14)
A t another place Jesus said
to H is d iscip le s: " And why cad
ye me. L o rd , and do not the
things which 1 say?” (Luke
6:46)

(John 3:13) ami "W h ith e r I go,
ye cannot c o m e ." J o h n 13:33)
