2 John 1
5 I am writing to remind you, dear friends, that we should love one another. This is not a new commandment, but one we have had from the beginning. 6 Love means doing what God has commanded us, and he has commanded us to love one another, just as you heard from the beginning.
John is known as the Apostle of Love, and once again he draws a clear correlation between obeying God and love. In verse six, he plainly states (in the NLT) that love means doing what God has commanded us. Doesn’t get any more simple than that, now does it?
