NASB | John 15:15 "No longer do I call you slaves, for the slave does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I have heard from My Father I have made known to you. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | John 15:15 "I do not call you servants any longer, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you [My] friends, because I have revealed to you everything that I have heard from My Father. |
Bible Question: what does it mean to have God as your friend other than having everything made known to you that Jesus has heard from the Father? |
Bible Answer: It means the same as it does with a human friend. I can take to him about everything and anything and he doesn't judge me. He loves me in my rotten moods and even when I'm disgusted with him. When I don't talk to him for hours, even days, months, years - when I speak with him again he is still there and he is still the same. I don't ever have to worry about him telling my secrets, yet he reveals his to me. I love him and I love spending time in his presence just because. That's what it means to be a friend. That's what Jesus is to me. |
