59 "One Another's"

There are 59 commands in the New Testament of "One Another's". Be at peace with one another; Wash one another's feet; Do not slander one another; Encourage one another and it goes on and on but the one that is mentioned the most, 15 times respectively is...Love one another. As Christians these commands are sometimes learned from the pulpit and though other believers in our community but putting these in to action should come from the overflow of our heart and love for the Lord.

I was doing some research about the number 59 I found that in numerology it is said to have this meaning "its sense of personal freedom — broadly, wholeheartedly, intending to encounter all aspects of humanity that it is feasible to experience."* Isn't that interesting that in looking at the number of times there is a command in the Bible for one another's that the number in another fashion represents a sense of personal freedom. How could we not take each of these and apply them in our lives? Imagine the personal freedom we could have if we lived as we were commanded! While I understand that realistically each of these can't be done on a daily basis, why as a community of believers can't we be more intentional?

Andy Stanley says it best, "The primary activity of the church is one-anothering one another." Let's start by the living out the command mentioned most, and the rest will fall in line. Love ONE ANOTHER as He has loved us.
