Commentary on John 15:9

Theological / Devotional

Father hath loved me. Compare chs. 3:35; 5:20; 10:17; 17:24.

In my love. To abide in Christ means to abide in the shelter of His love. It is comforting to know Christ’s love for us is as abiding as the Father’s love for the Son. More than that, “the Father himself loveth you” (ch. 16:27) with the same love with which He loves the Son.
