IN THE VIDEO, JIM<br />

QUOTED HEBREWS<br />
10:24, WHICH SAYS<br />
WE ARE TO “SPUR”<br />
ONE ANOTHER ON.<br />
EVEN IF YOU’VE NEVER<br />
RIDDEN A HORSE, YOU’RE<br />
PROBABLY FAMILIAR<br />
WITH SPURS FROM THE<br />
MOVIES. BASICALLY THEY<br />
ARE JUST SMALL METAL<br />
TOOLS A RIDER WEARS<br />
ON HIS BOOTS, AND WHEN<br />
HE WANTS TO URGE THE<br />
HORSE TO WALK OR RUN<br />
MORE QUICKLY OR MOVE<br />
FROM SIDE TO SIDE, HE<br />
GENTLY PUSHES THE SPUR<br />
INTO THE HORSE’S SIDE.<br />
WHEN USED CORRECTLY<br />
A SPUR DOES NOT HURT<br />
THE HORSE, BUT IT CAN<br />
BE A GREAT WAY TO<br />
REINFORCE THE RIDER’S<br />
OTHER COMMANDS OR<br />
COMMUNICATE QUICKLY<br />
AND CLEARLY DURING<br />
RIDING.<br />
In addition to <strong>the</strong> wonderful<br />
metaphor of this verse,<br />
which gives us a word picture<br />
of urging each o<strong>the</strong>r on to<br />
do better, it’s also one of<br />
many verses in <strong>the</strong> Bible<br />
you just can’t obey if you<br />
don’t participate in <strong>the</strong> life<br />
of a church and connect with<br />
o<strong>the</strong>r believers.<br />
HERE ARE A FEW MORE:<br />
Be devoted to one ano<strong>the</strong>r<br />
in bro<strong>the</strong>rly love. Honor one<br />
ano<strong>the</strong>r above yourselves.<br />
Romans 12:10<br />
Serve one ano<strong>the</strong>r in love.<br />
Galatians 5:13<br />
Be kind and compassionate<br />
to one ano<strong>the</strong>r, forgiving each<br />
o<strong>the</strong>r, just as in Christ God<br />
forgave you.<br />
Ephesians 4:32<br />
