Living at the Crossroads
The command to “love one another” is directed to the community of saints – all of us – and is a narrower focus than the command to love our enemies or our neighbors. As Jesus oriented his attention and activities to the will and word of his Father, we are to understand that Jesus is just as attentive and active toward us as he is toward his Father. And now that we are “friends of God” reciprocity means that we are to respond back to Jesus with similar attention and activity as we care for one another, and invite others into the circle of the community.

Our Redemption or “being set free†comes from the payment a ransom that in this case is the death of Jesus in place sinners. The child of God is not only given freedom from the penalty of sin, but the sin itself is forgotten. Redemption and forgiveness go together. The “seal†for Christians is the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is not only promised, but is the mark whereby the Christian is marked out as belonging to God and the “guarantee†of that Christian future inheritance. The Holy Spirit is a down payment that guarantees ultimate ownership by God.
