politics, we may refer to certain people whose policies we cannot agree with<br />

as a bunch <strong>of</strong> monkeys or less complimentary terms. And sometimes I wonder<br />

over Sunday lunches how many members have ‘roasted preacher’ on their<br />

menu?<br />

This has to stop! What these actions actually say is we have no respect for<br />

the other party. That we know it all, that only our opinions or ways are right<br />

and if they do not listen to us or do it our way that they are fools!<br />

Jesus says that this is not the way that a person who truly loves Me will treat<br />

another. I am so afraid that many <strong>of</strong> us who will never ever be condemned<br />

because <strong>of</strong> our doctrine, works or faith will miss heaven anyhow because we<br />

fail to love our brother.<br />

So here you have it - 3 guidelines for this year:<br />

1. To know <strong>God</strong> more deeply.<br />

2. To draw to <strong>God</strong> more closely.<br />

3. To love <strong>God</strong> more dearly.<br />

Our response to these three guidelines should be just one word - repentence.<br />

Pause, take stock <strong>of</strong> our situation and where we are heading. Consider the<br />

3 guidelines and make the necessary adjustments. And if we do, this year<br />

will be different.<br />
