Characteristics of a Lukewarm Person Lukewarm people are part-time believers; they have a double lifestyle sinful/fake holy one 👉Lukewarm people crave acceptance from kingdom of light and darkness. They tend to choose what is popular over what is right when they are in conflict. They desire to fit in with the church and with the world; they care more about what people think of their actions (Godly or Worldly) than what God thinks of their hearts and lives. 👉Lukewarm people dont really want to be saved from their sin; they want only to be saved from the penalty of their sin. They dont genuinely hate sin and arent truly sorry for it; theyre merely sorry because God is going to punish them. 👉Lukewarm people dont really believe that this new life Jesus offers is better than the old sinful one. Consequently, they tolerate and rationalize unconfessed sin. 👉Lukewarm people RARELY share their faith with their neighbors, coworkers, or friends. They do not want to be rejected, nor do they want to make people uncomfortable by talking about private issues like religion. 👉Lukewarm people are double-minded and have partiality of sins they approval of. Lukewarm people say they love Jesus, and he is, indeed, a part of their lives, their money, and their thoughts, but he isnt allowed to control their lives. 👉Lukewarm people, in many respects, are practical atheists. While they believe in God, they live as though God does not exist. They do not consult with him much less follow his leading. 👉Lukewarm people probably drink and swear less than average, but besides that, they really arent very different from your typical unbeliever. They equate their partially sanitized lives with holiness! 👉Lukewarm people pray more in public and when called upon than they do in private. Prayer means little to them. If it means anything to them it is a “HELP LINE” to God when things go wrong in their lives not a private conversation to know the God of the Universe. 👉Lukewarm people rarely read the Bible. They have plenty in their homes, mind you, but they seldom pick it up to read, let alone study or meditate on or follow its commands. This is not all! Sad, but true! If you Lukewarm you were never saved from the beginning!
