INTRODUCTION
As we continue in our examination of the conditions for entry into heaven, we final listed in Psalms 15:4 the following conditions:
i. We are to hate sin
ii. Despise those who indulge in sins
iii. Pay our vows and keep our promises. Why do you think that conditions (i) and (ii) are crucial?
1. What are saints expected to hate? How do you know a man who fears the Lord? How do you know a holy man and a wise man? Psalms 103:1-3, Psalms 119:104, Psalms 1:2, Psalms 119:113, Proverbs 8:7, Proverbs 9:10, II Peter 2:5-8. Saints must hate sin, falsehood, lies, slander even vain (unproductive) though, i.e. daydreaming. A man who fears the Lord, who is a wise man, hates sins and a holy man is known by the fact that he has sorrows and expresses it when others sin.
2. What is the difference between respect and reverence? Why must we revere God? Matthew 5:48, Hebrews 12:14, Ephesians 5:5, Isaiah 11:4, Job 4:9, Job 12:10, Psalms 51:1:1,4. The difference between respect and reverence is that reverence equals respect plus fear. We reference God because of His holiness, power, mercy, faithfulness and love.
His holiness: This reminds us of the judgment day and the condition that we will be as perfect as His is perfect – Col. 3:15-17, James 1:4.
His: We revere God because He has the power to destroy but refrain from doing so, He has absolute power but never uses it to the detriment of man – Ezekiel 33:11.
His mercy: Suppose a judge finds you guilty of a serious offence, cautions you out of mercy and sets you free. Will you ever like to appear before such a judge again as an offender? Romans 3:3-6.
His faithfulness: A faithful person is automatically rigid, unchangeable. When He says He will do good He stands by it, when He says He will do otherwise, He stands by it also, Isaiah 45:23, Ezekiel 12:28.
His love: Have you ever neared of love so great that a man lays down His life for His enemies? How can anyone dare offered such a friend and go unpunished? Songs of Solomon 8:6.

CONCLUSION
Have you been giving God His sure place in your life, your business and your home? He deserves first place in all things. If you have not surrendered all to Him, you will not be able to reign with Him. Will you like to talk to Him now about your own decision to make Him pre-eminent in your life?
