Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command you. - John 15:13-14
No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you. - John 15:15
You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide; so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you. - John 15:16
