The Empty Pew BY REV. W. JENE MILLER What does "hugging" someone really prove? Nothing. Bears hug creatures to kill them. What ...does kissing someone really prove? Nothing. Judas kissed Jesus. What does "Not -hugging" someone really prove? Nothing. Prudes are as sick as profligates! What does "Not - kissing" someone really prove? Nothing. Scripture commands, "greet one another with a Holy kiss". What does judging those who hug or kiss, or who do NOT hug or kiss, prove? Nothing. It neither condemns those who are judged nor those who do the judging. Well, what can one use to- know oknow the kind of person another is? Nothing. Trying to evaluate what another is worth tells only what the judging person wants to know. Well, how do you decide when or how to love? I don't. I decide WILLIAM J. KELLY William J. Kelly passed away in Clinton Public Hospital on February 11,1975,., William (Bill) J.

They told of some missions of the United Church in Canada such as the Friendship Inn in Saskatoon Where free, hot meals are given to the needy, and the Wayside Centre in Thunder Bay. They to love whoever comes along. That makes love cheap! Not "Christian" — or mature love. The love from God is first obedience to God in -Christ Jesus, and servants of humanity in His name. Such love decides only "how" to love, and that depends on each separate individual's nature. Some persons need closeness, and some need distance. They must determine how they will receive love. That sounds like indulging and smother -love. No. Love may confront evil, but it always does so in the interest of freeing the person who is trapped by fear or hate or greed or lust or whatever. The Christian is Love looking for a place to happen. Death rates from all types of heart disease in Canadians aged 65 years and under have been reduced by 28 percent since 1950.
