1As you read the Savior’s teachings in John 13–17, the Holy Ghost will help you identify messages for you.
2Record the impressions you receive.
3Today we call it the “Last Supper,” but we don’t know if Jesus’s disciples fully realized, when they gathered for the annual Passover feast, that this would be their last meal with their Master before His death.
4Jesus, however, “knew that his hour was come” (John 13:1).
5He would soon face the suffering of Gethsemane, the betrayal and denial of His closest friends, and the agonizing death on the cross.
6Yet even with all of this looming before Him, Jesus’s focus was not on Himself but on ministering to His disciples.
7He humbly washed their feet.
8He taught them about love.
9And He reassured them that, in one sense, He would never leave them and they need never leave Him.
10Disciples then and now find solace in His promises: “I will not leave you comfortless” (John 14:18).
11“If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love” (John 15:10).
12Jesus had already taught that the two greatest commandments have to do with love (see Matthew 22:34–40).
13In keeping with this emphasis, love was a major theme of His final instructions to His Apostles.
14As you read John 13–15, you might note or mark each use of the word love.
15You may notice the word commandments repeated frequently in association with the word love in these chapters.
16What can you learn about the relationship between love and commandments from the Savior’s teachings?
17What other words do you find repeated frequently with the word love in these chapters?
18Based on what you learn, consider writing a brief summary of the Savior’s teachings about love.
19See also D. Todd Christofferson, “Abide in My Love,” Ensign or Liahona, Nov. 2016, 48–51.
20Jesus Christ knew He would soon leave His disciples, and He knew they would need spiritual support once He was gone.
21To help them understand how they would receive this support, He taught them about the Holy Ghost.
22What do you learn about the roles of the Holy Ghost from the Savior’s words in the following verses?
23John 14:16–17, 26
24John 15:26
25John 16:7–11
26John 16:12–15
27Why did the disciples need this kind of help from the Holy Ghost?
28How has the Holy Ghost fulfilled these roles in your life?
29As you continue studying the New Testament, look for ways the Holy Ghost blessed Jesus’s disciples.
30How would your life be different if you invited the Holy Ghost to influence you more deeply?

32What might it mean to “abide in [Christ]”? (John 15:4).
33What “fruit” shows that you are attached to the vine, which represents Jesus Christ?
34Jesus’s words recorded in John 17 are known as the Intercessory Prayer.
35In this prayer, Jesus prayed for His Apostles and “them also which shall believe on [Him] through their word” (John 17:20).
36That means He was praying for you.
37What did Jesus request from His Father in behalf of you and all other believers?
38This prayer also teaches profound, eternal truths.
39What truths do you find as you read it?
40In His prayer in John 17, Jesus emphasized His unity with the Father, but this does not mean that He and His Father are the same being.
41When the Savior prayed that His disciples may be one “even as”—or in the same way that—He and His Father are one (John 17:22), He was not asking that the disciples become one being.
42Rather, His desire was for them to enjoy the same unity He has with the Father—perfect unity of purpose, heart, and mind.
43As you read the scriptures with your family, the Spirit can help you know what principles to emphasize and discuss in order to meet the needs of your family.
44Here are some suggestions:
45What does our family learn from the example of the Savior in these verses?
46In what ways can we follow His example?
47As you discuss the Savior’s teachings about love, consider also these words from President Thomas S. Monson: “In today’s world, nowhere is that bedrock foundation of love needed more than in the home.
48And nowhere should the world find a better example of that foundation than in the homes of Latter-day Saints who have made love the heart of their family life. …
49Love is the very essence of the gospel, the noblest attribute of the human soul” (“As I Have Loved You,” Ensign or Liahona, Feb. 2017, 4–5).
50Your family members may enjoy drawing pictures or writing on paper hearts something they love about each other.
51They could place these hearts around the house as a reminder to show love for one another.
52It might be fun to read these verses outside next to a vine, a tree, or another plant.
53How does this activity help your family members better understand the Savior’s teachings?
54Jesus taught, “I am the vine, ye are the branches” (John 15:5).
55Why do you think Jesus Christ warned His disciples of persecution?
56How are disciples of Christ persecuted today?
57How can the Savior’s counsel in these verses help us when we face persecution?
58How has Christ overcome the world?
59How has His Atonement brought us peace and cheer? (see also D&C 68:6).
60How can our family be more united as Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father are united?
61Why does the Lord want us to be united? (see also D&C 38:27).
62For more ideas for teaching children, see this week’s outline in Come, Follow Me—For Primary.
63Use audio recordings.
64As you teach your family the scriptures, consider listening to the audio version of the scriptures, found on LDS.org or the Gospel Library app.
65Listening to John 13–17 can be particularly powerful because these chapters contain so many of the Savior’s words.
