Why does Jesus call "Love One Another" a "New" commandment?
hmmm.. i'm not sure but i think seeing that we are no longer saved by the law but by grace through Jesus Christ we need new commandents. it is a new commandent because like grace it is open, meaning there are no direct orders or borders in which we should live. The new commandment covers all things even those that were in the previous law that he deems necessary. If you do unto others as u will like to be done unto you, then you won't kill or steal or commit adultry etc.

How does being forgiven increase ones love for God? Note: According to Jesus, God`s forgiveness is motivated by love.
One asks for forgiveness when they acknowledge that they were wrong.In order to acknowledge that you were wrong one must feel a sense of guilt or shame. If when we are feeling guilty or ashame God deals with us harshly and refused to forgive us it will only make us draw away from him and satan"s philosophy of God will be  proven true, but if he forgives us we realize his compassion and love and we likewise return that love. Do a man hate his friend that shows him love"

What is the Kingdom of God?
i think the Kingdom of GOD is a stste of spiritual bliss; rather than a place. The kingdom of GOD is peace, faith, long suffering, charity, hope etc. Once you have these qualities you have Jesus and his kingdom is established in everyone that diligently seek him

Does Jesus believe lowly people are valuable? How valuable?

Definitely, lowly doesn't only speak to being poor but, humble, meek, caring, compassionate etc. These are all the quaities of Jesus and what he desires for us to be like, so definetely the lowly are extremely valueable.The lowly are so valuable that Christ speaks of the litany of blessing that will befall them; in mattew 5.
