He Loved Them unto the End
The precious words "He loved them unto the end" are found in John 13:1. Most of us know that "to the end" means on and on, through every day. That is, He has loved and loves us with a love that nothing can stop; nothing can make Him cease to love us.
It is remarkable too, that we find a passage in Heb. 13 which says, "Let brotherly love continue." What does that mean? Just exactly what it says: that it is to continue—never to cease. Our brethren cannot act worse toward us, nor we toward them, than the disciples did toward the Lord. "This in My commandment, that ye love one another, as I have loved you." John 15:12. This means that we are to love our brethren in the same way—the same manner—on and on, through and through in spite of everything.
