How does Jesus link intimacy to him with obedience to him?" a "New" commandment?

If we really knew Jesus, how much He loves us, how much we do not deserve it, how much we have done wrong by Him and been released from, His perfection and trustworthyness, we would be so grateful for His love, mercy, grace that we would love Him back, trust Him completely, and follow Him wholeheartedly. There would be no doubts, worry, questions, in obedience; there would be no disobedience.

If you had a one-on-one meal with Jesus, what would you discuss?

What happens to those who are truly convinced of their religion and those who have not heard the Gospel?

Why are Christians the minority and not the majority? How can we be sure of the right interpretation of the Bible; that the interpretation is from you God, and not mingled with manly ideas/desires?

Why does Jesus call "Love One Another" a "New" commandment?

I guess Jesus was speaking to the Jewish people who were used to the Ten Commandments and other commandments from the Old Testament. He calls "Love one another" a "new" commandment because He is saying that it is a new way of loving that they are not used to. He calls them to a sacrifical, servanthood love. A love that includes enemies and surpasses races and class; that requires that everyone be treated the same. It is not the minimum treatment of others as revealed in the Old Testament, but a higher one that only Jesus can help us with. This is a new commandment because it is for a new people, ones that will be filled with the Holy Spirit to be enabled to follow this new command.
