"Lukewarm Christian" by David Cunningham

But because you are lukewarm, neither hot nor cold, I am going to spit you out of my mouth! (Revelation 3:16 NIV)

To quote Christi Given from Project Inspiration- The term " lukewarm Christian" derives from the idea of lukewarm water, which is no good taste-wise, is bland and is not useful in some ways. This term is referred to by Jesus in (Revelation 3) when He mentions so-called "Christians (Christ Followers) or believers will cry out and not understand why they cannot enter the Kingdom.  

The answer is that they simply believed but did not follow Jesus. They believed enough to scrape by, but remember the demons even believe and they shudder (James 2:19). YES, it is by FAITH you are saved, not of yourself, but if you lack spiritual fruit (Galatians 5:22) and evidence of your spiritual walk (not by outward performance) and a life of worship, it leads you to be a stranger to Christ. 

I understand that (LIFE) is hard sometimes, and we can get caught up in the day to day shuffle to just get by. I don't know about you, but the term (lukewarm Christians) leaves me convicted to stop straddling the fence.

I believe a few ways we can start a revival in our lives is by reading HIS word on a daily basis, by getting back into fellowship with other (BELIEVERS), and to infuse more praise and worship through spiritual music in our lives to help get us back in the right mindset and a deeper relationship with Christ.

 Let us no longer be a lukewarm Christian, but it is time that we rekindle our furnace now and get back "On Fire for the LORD".
