    A Casual Christian can be described as lukewarm. Casual Christians present a mixed worship, live a mixed lifestyle, and send a mixed message.

    CASUAL CHRISTIANITY Revelation 3:14-16 Introduction: George Barna has written a book entitled “The Seven Faith Tribes: Who They Are, What They Believe, and Why They Matter.” In that book Barna describes the seven tribes as Casual Christians, Captive Christians, Mormons, Jews, Pantheists, Muslims ...read more

    The Church at Laodicea is a church termed "Lukewarm" by our Lord - and obviously shows the signs of "Complacency". Many a congregation have fallen into this trap.

    The Complacent Church Revelation 3:14-19 * The story is told of a preacher going to his deacon chairman and asking, “Do you think the problems we face in the church is tied to ignorance & apathy?” After a moment the man replied, “I don’t know & I don’t care.” * Today we look at the church in ...read more

    Cardboard testimonies sermon, dealing with the past versus the present in Christ. Full text, audio & Communion message will be placed at: www.sermonlist.com

    Many people, including all of us, have done things in our lives that God despised.

To God, a little white lie is just as bad a shooting somebody because they are both done with ...read more

    How do we pray? Opening skit, showing that it is better to have no words in your heart than it is to have no heart in your words. Are we hot, cold, or lukewarm?

    Are You On The Way Or In The Way?

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Apr 5, 2022
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,470 views

    Early Jewish Christians referred to themselves as "The Way," which some have surmised comes from the book of Isaiah, where it was prophesied, "prepare the way of the Lord" (Isaiah 40:3).

    "The Way" is how Jesus referred to Himself, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me" (John 14:6 ESV). Throughout the book of Acts, people who were followers of Jesus were not called Christians but considered "a sect of the ...read more

    Fire refines, burns and consumes. The word of God is fire. The prophets of old had fire in their bones. Today, lukewarmness pervades the church. Where is the fire?

    TEXT: JEREMIAH 20:8-9 "When I speak, the words burst out. 'Violence and destruction!' I shout. So these messages from the LORD have made me a household joke. But if I say I’ll never mention the LORD or speak in his name, his word burns in my heart like a fire. It’s like a fire in my ...read more
