John 13:34–35. A New Commandment

1. According to John 13:34–35, how can others know if we are disciples of Jesus Christ?
   
   • Others can know that we are disciples of Jesus Christ by the way we love and treat each other.
2. List some specific ways a disciple of Jesus Christ might respond in the following situations (in accordance with John 13:34–35):
   • Someone you know is ridiculed or made fun of because of the way he or she dresses. 
   • Being a disciple of Jesus Christ if I saw this I would not participate in the ridiculing. Instead, I would try to reach out and become their friend. I would strive to set a good example to those who are doing the ridiculing and I would become a friend to the person who is being ridiculed. 
   • You see a new person at church. 
   • I would try and become friends with them and help them to feel a part of the ward. 
3. Ponder the question, “Do people know that I am a disciple of Jesus Christ by the way I treat them?” Select a family member, coworker, or neighbor and make a short list of things you can do during the coming week to show him or her the kind of love the Savior would show. Then follow through with what you wrote down. 

• Next week I will follow up with how this went :)
