INTRO: I wonder, how many of you have heard a message on the ‘holy’ kiss mentioned numerous times in the NT? Let me begin this message by reading several passages of Scripture: Romans 16:16: Greet one another with a holy kiss. The churches of Christ greet you. 1 Corinthians 16:20: All the brethren greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss. 2 Corinthians 13:12: Greet one another with a holy kiss. 1 Thessalonians 5:26: Greet all the brethren with a holy kiss.
Four times in four different passages we read Paul’s command for Christians to greet one another with a holy kiss. I have pondered this command, among other difficult texts over the years and have come to a conclusion, as to what I think it means. So, in this message I want to give, what I think is the meaning of this imperative, and how it is to be practiced, and then I want to share certain times that are an exception to this command.
