Would you consider yourself lukewarm when it comes to your relationship with Jesus? Before you answer that, lets consider some definitions:luke·warmˈlo͞okwôrm/adjectiveadjective: lukewarm (of liquid or food that should be hot) only moderately warmslightly warm, warmish, at room temperature, "lukewarm coffee" (of a person, attitude, or action) unenthusiastic.synonyms:More informal laid-back, couldn’t-care-less"a lukewarm response”Do any of these descriptive words describe your relationship? I do not mean for this to sound dogmatic or harsh, but we need to take our relationship with Jesus very seriously! Jesus when He addressed the church of the Laodiceans said, “I know your works, that you are neither cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold or hot, I will vomit you out of my mouth.” See, when Jesus calls us to salvation, He does not call us to a halfhearted commitment, but a wholehearted commitment! We cannot afford to play church. If you are on fire for Jesus - keep fanning that flame! If you are not on fire for Jesus, then Jesus says to “repent” and get on fire for Him. This cannot be conjoured up in the flesh, but does require an honest self-examination before the Lord and the help of the Holy Spirit. Church, let’s pray that the Lord will help us to get on fire for Him, His church and His mission!In His Service,Pastor Rod
