Jesus didn’t teach His disciples to love Him, He taught them why He loved them, and if they would keep themselves in the love He had for them, they would be able to love others in the same way He was loving them.

This was how Jesus taught His disciples to love God. When we know God’s love for ourselves, it is manifested in how we love people.
