There is a cold front moving in to the North East, and Nor'easters are being warned to get read for a snowy Thanksgiving. Did you know that Jesus warned of a cold front in the last days: the love of many will grow cold (Matt. 24:12)? The last letter written to the churches in Revelation
3 is Laodicea, characterized as a lukewarm
church. Today, the number of passionate believers in Jesus is decreasing
while lukewarm-ness accelerates to near apostasy.
Do you know that the Bible prophecies a strong
delusion (2 Thess. 2:11), like a freezing wind, will numb out everyone (including lukewarm believers) in the last days. And then, when the Holy Spirit is removed from the earth, this freeze will move in and make everyone so cold they no longer feel the love of God. Is this why Jude says, Keep yourselves in the love of God
(Jude 21), and Paul, Be on fire with the Spirit (Rom. 12:11)? When you see this cold front moving in, watch your heart. Don't be left out in the cold!
Greg,
ReplyDeleteHow many of us have experienced turning on the hot water spigot and having to wait for a while until the pipes heat up, finally making hot water available? A secret to always having hot water, then, would be to always let the spigot drip a little from the hot water side. While that may be considered "wasting" water to some, it still guarantees instant hat water the moment you turn the faucet on.
Could it be the same for always staying "hot" spiritually?
