John 15:13 in Context — John 15

11 Estas cosas os he hablado, para que mi gozo esté en vosotros, y vuestro gozo sea cumplido.

12 Este es mi mandamiento: Que os améis los unos á los otros, como yo os he amado.

13 Nadie tiene mayor amor que este, que ponga alguno su vida por sus amigos.

14 Vosotros sois mis amigos, si hiciereis las cosas que yo os mando.

15 Ya no os llamaré siervos, porque el siervo no sabe lo que hace su señor: mas os he llamado amigos, porque todas las cosas que oí de mi Padre, os he hecho notorias.
