Harsh Rebuke for Being Lukewarm
Series Revelation 2017
Oblivious to how far from the true ministry of the church and to how bad their spiritual condition was, the church at Laodicia received severe condemnation. It is worth taking serious note for Christians individually and corporately of what they are not condemned for. Christ’s rebuke was not for doctrinal failures or moral impurity. They were condemned for their spiritual indifference, complacency, and passivity. Spiritual moderation is not pleasing to the Lord of the church who calls for zeal, diligence, and fervency among His people. Being half-hearted in commitment has a deadening effect as it reveals a heart that is deceived while thinking all is well. To, in general, just not really care is to reject who Christ is and what a relationship with Him truly is. A serious call for many who call themselves Christian today and by their evaluation are pleasing to God. The time to examine and repent is at hand.
