Why does Jesus call Love One Another a New commandment?
GOD loved the world so much that he gave his son to die for us. If we can learn to love that much we would overcome alot of our problems its sometimes difficult to even love ourselfs becuase of faults that we have and how more to love your neighbor. Thats why I think that he gave us this new commandment

Jesus said love one another because on this depend the whole law because if we love one another we would not hurt them and do bad things towards them and also by loving others means loving God and adoring Him.

Why does Jesus call ``Love One Another`` a ``New`` commandment?
It is new because the first ten commandments did not upon this fact. The commandments deal with the relationship of the one to one own`s actions. Because loving one another is the only way to appease the strife and worries of this world. Not seeing eye to eye is a terrible thing that keeps us from attaining the ultimate peace in this world! Amen

Love One Another New commandment
I believe Jesus called Love One Another a New commandment because when Adam and Eve lost paradise for us we were all lost until God The Father had compassion on us and Loved us so much that He send His Son to become man and pay the ultimate price so we can again be with Him in heaven. There should never be a question of loving Our Lord Our God with all our hearts and with all our soul, and with all our mind, but when God the Son ''Jesus'' was sent to us to show us The Way back to His Father in heaven, He gave us this new commandment to Love One Another so we can all be with Him in Heaven.

Why does Jesus call love one another a new commandment?
It is because the law of Moses '' the ten commandments'' had arased love frrom people`s hearts. People commited crimes within the law, like stoning of criminals, discriminating the unclean, and killing people in the name of protecting the image of God. I think Jesus emphasised love, to show that God is love and you cannot commit crimes for his sake. Jesus wanted poeple to begin a new age of living in harmony accepting others form their hearts.

Why does Jesus call Love One Another a New commandment?
Jesus call Love one another a new law why? My understanding of the Bible on this matter have to do with the behaviour of human being toward their sinbling in the old testament where eye was for an eye which mean when you do me wrong i repay you. But jesus in his statement said when men slap you on one chick, turn the other.. not paying debt. we ought to love one another, showing love concern and compassion toward each other and this is the only ay the world will know us to be Christ followers therefore it has become a new commandment contrary to what we learnt in the pass.

I think that prior to Jesus` coming, the Jews` adherence to the Old Testament Law ''the 10 Commandments'' had become a legalistic striving to obey the rules and prove their own righteousness. In many cases, their desire to please God was twisted into efforts to justify themselves, to prove they were more righteous than their neighbors, to point out sin in others. In fact, the whole effort became more self-centered than God-centered! Jesus turned the whole thing on its head. He pointed out that it is not about making yourself look more righteous--the way of righteousness is to LOVE others. And to love them is to serve them, to put their good above your own. He said this, and then He did it--with His life, His actions, His death on our behalf. This upset the whole social/religious hierarchy in their day, ''literally and emotionally!''!
