To receive the Mother of God means to fulfil Christ\u2019s commandment: <em>\u201cIf you love Me, keep My commandments.\u201d<\/em> (Jn 14:15) The reception of the Mother of God by the Apostle John in the hour of Christ\u2019s death is a model for us too. Jesus came to this world through Mary and the Holy Spirit. Through Mary and the Holy Spirit He will also come into our souls and make His dwelling with us (see Jn 14:23).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Download: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/vkpatriarhat.org\/de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Reflection-on-Jn-14_15-16.doc\">Reflection on Jn 14:15-16<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you love Me, keep My commandments.
