 Asati ataura mashoko iwayo, Jesu akanga audza vaapostora vake kuti: “Uyu ndiwo murayiro wangu, kuti mudanane sekuda kwandakakuitai.” (Johani 15:12) Jesu akaratidza vadzidzi vake rudo rwakaita sei? Rwaiva rudo rwepachokwadi, rudo rwekuzvipira. Paaiita ushumiri hwake pano panyika, ainyanya kufunga zvaidiwa nevadzidzi vake uye vamwe vanhu kupfuura zvaaida iye. Akarapa vanhu vairwara uye akavadzidzisa nezveUmambo hwaMwari. a Aitoita kunyange mabasa akaderera kuitira kuti abatsire vamwe. (Mateu 9:35; Ruka 22:27; Johani 13:3-5) Asi pana Johani 15:13, Jesu aitaura nezverudo rwakakura kupfuura ipapo. Pasina kana nguva yakareba abva kutaura mashoko iwayo akaratidza rudo irworwo rukuru “nekupa upenyu hwake kuti adzikinure vanhu vazhinji.” (Mateu 20:28; 22:39) Saka akaratidza nenzira inoshamisa kuti aida vanhu kupfuura kuda kwaaizviita.
