Jesus doesn’t just “generally” love the world—His love for His own is personal, costly, and without equal.
In this sermon, we explore John 13:1–3, where Jesus, on the night before His crucifixion, knows He will be betrayed by Judas—yet He responds with shocking, sacrificial love.
This message will help you:
Understand Jesus’ love for His disciples and believers today
See how Christ loves even in betrayal, sin, and failure
Trust God’s sovereign plan in the cross of Jesus Christ
Experience the personal love of Jesus in your own life
If you’ve ever felt too sinful, too inconsistent, or too far gone, this passage shows that Jesus loves His own to the very end.
