CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Talked about the divisiveness that is prevalent in the world today.  We need to be part of the solution, not the problem.  Some things to consider:

“You should always go through life working on the assumption that the other guy might be right.”  Senator Howard Baker, Jr.

“I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them.  For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naive.”  Romans 16:17-18.

Read the Sneetches by Dr. Suess and pay close attention to Sylvester McMonkey McBean.

Don’t be McBean.  Be the person who helps find equality and common ground, not the person who takes advantage of situations and profits off of others.

Remember what you learned in Sunday School and Kindergarten and the world will be a better place.

Get out your hot plate people.

Lukewarm

I’m going to describe some people….

  • Attend church fairly regularly. It is what is expected of them, what they believe “good Christians” do, so they go.
  • Give money to charity and to the church… as long as it doesn’t impinge on their standard of living. If they have a little extra and it is easy and safe to give, they do so.
  • Desire to fit in both at church and outside of church; they care more about what people think of their actions than what God thinks of their hearts and lives.
  • Don’t really want to be saved from their sin; they want only to be saved from the penalty of their sin.
  • Are moved by stories about people who do radical things for Christ, yet they do not act. Lukewarm people call “radical” what Jesus expected of all His followers.
  • Rarely share their faith with their neighbors, coworkers, or friends. They do not want to be rejected, nor do they want to make people uncomfortable by talking about private issues like religion.
  • Gauge their morality or “goodness” by comparing themselves to the secular world. They feel satisfied that they are nowhere as horrible as the guy down the street.
  • Say they love Jesus, and He is a part of their lives. But only a part. They give Him a section of their time, money, thoughts, but He isn’t allowed to control their lives.
  • Love God, but they do not love Him with all their heart, soul, and strength.
  • Love others but do not seek to love others as much as they love themselves.

* How many of these “lukewarm traits” resonated with how you’re living your own life?

i know a few of those hit me in the mouth. I am Lukewarm a lot of the time.
jesus said:

“I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth.”
‭‭Revelation‬ ‭3:15-16‬

so, let’s get out our hot plates and warm up our faith, our actions and our spirit

With everything going on with the Pandemic, be sure to check in on people and make sure they are doing well.

When you are visiting family and friends, try to avoid the “How is work going?” and ask “Are you happy?”

The happiest of people don’t have the best of everything, they make the best of everything.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
It’s a great time to know the Lord.  So much in our culture is shifting.  Apart from being anchored in knowing God, we are like shifting sand driven by the waves all around us.  Anchor your souls in the knowledge of God.  What a great time to go back and study some basic theology (study of God) about the attributes of God — He is unchangeable, holy, wise, good, loving, sovereign.  To know God leads to trusting God and finding an anchor for our souls.  Spend some time in the Bible, a good theology book, or grab another man and study God together.
