I Corinthians 13:5 says to "test yourselves to see if you are in the faith." Here's a self-evaluation "pop quiz" to test your level of faith:
(1) Who do you put 1st/think of 1st each and every day? [20 pts.]
(2) Is your love for the Lord growing every day? Are you growing in knowledge of His Ways? [10 pts. each]
(3) Do you base your decisions on His interests rather than your own? [20 pts]
(4) Is there anything that you're not willing to give up in order to serve Him? Are you willing to follow His Will and not your own? [10 pts. each]
(5) Are you striving to be more like Jesus? [20 pts.]
It reads in Revelation 3:15-16 - NLT - "I know all the things you do, that you are neither HOT nor COLD. I wish that you were one or the other! But since you are like LUKEWARM water, neither hot or cold, I will spit you out of My mouth!"
WARNING: There's nothing more deceptive, damaging, or destructive to our relationship with the Lord than being LUKEWARM!!!
The definition for LUKEWARM is to "lack enthusiasm." Here are some synonyms for being lukewarm:
- INDIFFERENT: Neutral; unconcerned; apathetic; of no importance.
- LACKADAISICAL: Showing a lack of interest or spirit.
- LISTLESS: Indifference due to illness; dejection.
- LANGUID: To be faint; without vigor or vitality; weak; slow; dull.
