It lets us know, that we do have to make a choice. There is no straddling the fence but a "one side of the fence or the other". A firm decision for one or the other. Keep in mind that no decision is actually making a decision.
BUT...
The overall theme that really caught my attention is such a simple thought yet not deeply contemplated by many and I think just simply overlooked...
God's perfect love.
God manifesting this love by sending His Son to redeem us
Not that we loved God, but that He loved us
God is love
Because of this love that God has toward man, this is our duty:
- Loving God
- Believe that Jesus is the Son of God (we have been given enough evidence)
- Keeping His commandments
- Don't love the world
- Confessing Jesus Christ
- Love one another in deed and in truth and perfecting that love
Just a thought
