Respect

   For years the gang of "The Little Rascals" entertained audiences with the antics of kids being kids.� In one episode, Spanky McFarland and the gang were playing "Army".� Colonel Spanky, however, was having trouble with the decorum of his troops.� After repeatedly being snobbed as Superior Officer, he finally blurted out:� "What this army needs is more salutin'!"

   There's another army that "needs more salutin'".� The Bible says in Hebrews 13:24, "salute all them that have the rule over you, and all the saints'". Salute is defined as "a greeting-- a show of respect."� In service, one salutes a superior rank as a show of respect.

   Paul even takes it a step further.� He advises us to "Honor one another above yourselves."� We need to show respect to everyone, whether it's a gesture, greeting, or attitude.
