Do we really believe we have a responsibility to "watch out" and "love" one another, "receive one another", "edify one another", "serve one another", "bear one another's burdens", "forgive one another", "submit to one another", "exhort one another", "consider one another", "be hospitable to one another"? When we see another in error, is it our responsibility to help correct the error or do we say, "You know the Lord will take care of that...we reap what we sow?"
The New Testament reveals "Our Responsibilities to one Another". It is commanded by Jesus (Jn 13:34-35; 15:12).
John 13:34-35 (NIV) 34"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. 35 By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another."
John 15:13 (NIV) 13 “Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.” 17 “This is my command: Love each other.”
Do we understand the full meaning of our "Responsibilities to One Another"? Enlighten me.
