STUDY OF THE BOOK OF REVELATION THE RIGHTEOUS JUDGE JUDGES THE SEVEN CHURCHES STUDY OF THE SEVEN LETTERS THE CHURCH AT LAODICEA REVELATION 3:16 3:16 - “So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.” Laodicea revels softly in her luxurious works and supposed wealth and self-sufficiency; but Jehovah pronounces her wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked. She does not know her true condition. There is not one word of commendation concerning this assembly. The inevitable sentence is most solemnly expressive - I will spue thee out of My mouth. Reader, do you understand that statement? We taste water by taking it into the mouth only. If it is lukewarm it nauseates, and is instantly expelled from the mouth. Likewise, viewed dispensationally, this just people falsely so-called was never incorporated into Christs Body. They are no part of Him, nor of His true Church. It is very evident that Laodicea does not dwell in God, nor does Christ dwell in her. Else why does He stand at the door and knock? Nay! Laodicea has a form of godliness, but denies the power thereof. She has a profession without any possession. She is in apostasy.
