Checking Our Temperature Am I a Lukewarm Christian?
What Is Wrong with Being Lukewarm? • How did Laodicea look to those outside? To themselves? (Rev. 3:17) • What was the problem? (vv. 16, 17) • What good is lukewarm?
What Does a Lukewarm Christian Look Like? A Lukewarm Christian: • Loves God, but not first • Believes religion is important, but not all-important • Loves in theory, but not in practice • Has good intentions that are never realized • Is entertained by zeal in others, rather than inspired • Is often silent about his/her faith
The Bottom Line • Goal: Every Christian a Zealous Christian • Lukewarm Christians are not fruitful Christians (Tit. 3:14) • Lukewarm Christianity requires repentance (Rev. 3:19)
