He was witnessing to you? I would guess he felt like you weren't as forceful in your faith as his. If I'm reading what you are writing correctly. People don't need to know you. They will draw conclusions, you will be judged, and I don't think he was right to call into question your faith.
He is right or he is wrong. Either you are on fire for Christ or you are not. Only God can really know the answer and you too of course.

No one here can answer this. Ask him, not strangers that have no connection to either of you.
Truth is you have listed some things that are good, but none of us here know how you actually live your life. There are people out there who do all the things you say you do, but live lifestyles contrary to what the bible teaches. We don't know what he sees, or doesn't see, about you that makes him feel that way. Maybe he's right. Maybe he's being religious.
Best way to find out is ask the accuser, not people who are in no way involved or don't know anything about either one of you.

What if he is selfrighteous, instead?
God is "reached" spiritually and, if I´m FORCED to go to some church I probably decline to go to "his" church... Most of the people I knew I wanted to follow invited me LOVINGLY to go the places they attended BY DEVELOPING a love bond, not animosity.
If someone invited you to go there "to eat cakes", that´s the backdoor evangelism... You´re an adult! Jesus developed a bond with His followers and look at Jesus when He invited a samaritan to be married (Joh 4:18 You have had five husbands, and the man you have now is not your husband: that was truly said.
Joh 4:19 The woman said to him, Sir, I see that you are a prophet. ).
He´s such an HONEST friend!

Thank you. I don't know what I was thinking I just remember feeling hurt and shoked by his words. How could a man know my Faith when he doesn't even know me. And I remember at first he asked me if I beilved in God and if I would confess my sins I would be saved. I then told him yes I do I love God I love reading I love church I love praising God. And then as soon as I said that he then looked anoyyed by me. And that's when he said I felted lukewarm to him. But I felt the holy spirit say ask what God thinks about u. And then I got the scripture put on the full armor of God and of course your scripture. Thank you so much. I'm sorry I just never had any1 tell me that b4. I will never care when men say about me but what God says about me

It sounds like you ran into a legalist, or an overzealous witness.
None of us here can really judge your heart, that's God's job, and He will let you know where you're lacking, and if you're lacking. You could be fine, you might not be fine.
Heck, this person's careless remark may have even strengthened your faith by causing you to reevaluate it.
