My pastor preached on this a while back, just wanted to share

10 signs of a lukewarm christian

1
Crave acceptance from people more than acceptance from God

2
Rarely share their faith in Christ

3
Do whatever it takes to alleviate their guilt

4
Think more about life on earth than eternity in heaven

5
Gauge their morality by comparing themselves to others

6
Want to be saved from the penalty of sin without changing their lives

7
Only turn to God when they are in a bind

8
Give whenever it doesn't hinder their standard of living

9
Are not much different from the rest of the world

10
Want the benefits of what Christ did without conforming to who He is

God bless, i hope this challenges you as it did me

Carey, that is a very good list in terms of describing what a lukewarm spirit looks like. And it is indeed challenging to read, since many of those spiritual pitfalls are easily fallen into by us Christians. Thank you for sharing it.

I would like to add a sermon to this thread that I've uploaded to YouTube, which deals with the very subject of being "Lukewarm and Loving It", preached by Francis Chan. I think it would go well with your pastor's list of lukewarm signs.

Or how about a man preaching in sackcloth and ashes.
