Episode notes
Love Expressed Through Obedience
- Jesus links love and obedience by saying love for him is shown in keeping his commandments.
- Keeping his commandments is presented as mutual: those who keep them love him and are loved by the Father.
Commandments Remain In The New Covenant
- The new covenant is not a law-free relationship with God; commandments remain part of covenant life.
- Jesus modeled obedience without jeopardizing his loving relationship with the Father.
Messiah, Mediator, And The Spirit
- The coming of Jesus as Messiah changed how covenant faith relates to him as mediator.
- The old covenant became obsolete and the Spirit's enabling power is now given through faith.
