“Why do you see the speck in your neighbour’s eye, but do not notice the log in your own eye? Or how can you say to your neighbour, “Friend, let me take out the speck in your eye”, when you yourself do not see the log in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your neighbour’s eye.” |
How close are my relations with God? Do I meet with Him regularly (in prayers, services)? Are there obstacles in my relations with Christians from other denominations/congregations which prevent me from accepting another person as a brother/sister in Christ? What are these obstacles? Do I see any prejudices in my attitude – inability of accepting forms of worship other than my own? Maybe my attitude is affected by the opinion pronounced by another person? Maybe there is some fear in my relationships? What kind of fear? Does love pervade my theological argumentation when exchanging ideas with others? Don’t I have a self-righteous attitude about my own faith? Maybe I am indifferent – I feel good at the place where I am (in my congregation) and I am not interested in other members of Christ’s Body (do they suffer, rejoice, what do they do)? Have I refused to participate in some common work because the Christian standpoint of another person/congregation/denomination is not acceptable to me? Have I forgiven my brother/sister some inconsiderate action, attitude, words? Have I asked forgiveness for any of my inconsiderate words, thoughts, actions? Am I ready to step out of my comfort zone and habitual perception of things and make a step towards my brother/sister in Christ in order to get to know him/her, try to understand and give a common testimony about Christ? |
