What is Your Temperature?

So yesterday I asked you if you are lukewarm?  I do not want to be a lukewarm Christian!
Being a lukewarm Christian is like living of this gray world, no matter what time of the year it is, if it is springtime and the colour of the world is turning lush and green, it is still a gray world.
Or imagine yourself standing over a low fence, one foot is in the world that we currently have to live in, and the other foot is in the heavenly world of Christianity, but still on this planet....

Revelation 3:16 NIV
So, because you are lukewarm--neither hot nor cold--I am about to spit you out of my mouth.

So do you want to be spit out?  Think about this?  Because if you are spit out , where will you land?  I can't imagine you will land someplace nice...yuck...what a repulsive thought.  Okay I am going to get graphic.  

Imagine you are walking down the street one day...

     and there is an elderly man walking ahead,  

          he coughs, 

              he sputters, 

                    and hocks up a big one.  

                           Where does it go? 

                                   On the sidewalk, I suppose...

Now I am sure that Jesus is not an unkempt elderly man, but I am sure that you get the picture.  This is not in any way shape or form a comforting thought!  

So now again, I will ask you, what's your temperature?  I want nothing more than to be on fire for my God and Savior! 

I have quite a few friends, acquaintance, and relatives that are on "Facebook," and a lot of them are professing Christians...and the main reason I started a FB account was to stay in touch with family and friends...however what so many people fail to realize is that the picture postcards that they copy and paste to Facebook, may not always be from reputable places...I had one on my page and my son pointed out to me that it came from a group that has a lot of very distasteful posts and there is a little tiny, but legible moniker that has a word in it that I have only rarely used,  but I have used it, I am terribly sad to say.  Needless to say I removed it quickly!  But back to my point.  When you post something on Facebook, it is there for all the world to see. 

If you go to someone's home page and see distasteful post, it is frankly quite easy to see who is walking with one foot in the "world," and one foot in Christ's world.

It is really quite easy to see.  I have gotten to the point that I have changed the way that I see what is going on, on FB.  I receive notifications that someone in my circle of friends has posted something, I can the click on the notification and see it, but it doesn't show up on my home page or on my news feed.  And you can quickly peruse and see if this is something you should read.  It maybe something you want to read, but do not fall into the trap of Satan.  You can tell if it is something distasteful or off colour.  Quickly remove your eyes from what they are looking at!

I can look at someone's FB page and see who of my friend's really need prayer for walking with one foot on one side of the fence and one foot on the other side of the fence.  Or by walking in a gray world rather then in God's black and white world!  Or who is lukewarm and about to be spit out!  Yuck!

Well I really hope I have touched someone's heart today.  And/or helped someone to realize that maybe they need to walk differently.  And I am going to get my breakfast, and get ready for work, and find someone to bless!  How about you?
