Jesus' invitation spoken from outside their doors is a request for fellowship with any individual, who will repent of and overcome the spiritual lukewarmness of their lives. |
Such a state is what the Scriptures call lukewarmness, which to God is revolting. |
Giving into the pleasures of life makes your fervor lukewarm and this lukewarmness is the cause of other weaknesses and sins. |
But kobo silenced them by threatening to report their lukewarmness to the chief. |
I will always bless you, even when some sadden me through lukewarmness, disbelief and disobedience. |
God's word repeated as prayer, spoken to one another as encouragement, reflected on when we are perplexed, can still cut through pain, confusion, and lukewarmness. |
