Upon request more explanation about the meaning of the seven letters to the Churches. I shall try to do so by using common example from daily life.
Who is a cold Christian? May I say a Christian who visits every Sunday the church, but during the week he lives in the world. One does not notice he is a Christian, does not show the Biblical norms and values. May be even reads daily the Bible, but it has no effect on daily life, and is not under control of the Holy Spirit. Does not bother to give his tithe. Does not pray.
Who is a hot Christian?
A Christian who is noticed by people of his Christian life style, full of the Holy Spirit, respecting the Biblical norms and values. Showing is his love to his unbelievers and believers. Attending and giving Bible studies and prayer meetings. Praying with knocking and pleading using Biblical texts during one hour (or more). Giving his tithe to the church and in addition offerings for evangelism and missionaries. Supporting boarding schools in the Third world, liberating children from prostitution. During the Covid-19 crisis supporting in food parcels. The fruits of the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:22, 1 Cor. 6:10-11, Eph. 6:5-6) are visible in daily life. Protesting against things which go against Bible laws. Voting against politicians who support things which contrary the Will of God. Publish on the Internet the values of God, protesting against anti Godly things, against abortion, violence, euthanasia, the sexual acts of homosexuals. Investigating the truth and warning against the dangers of nano technology and Covid-19 vaccine. Explaining the Bible and the book of Revelation, the soon Rapture of the Church, who might stay behind and shall be taken.
Who is a lukewarm Christian?
The warning to the lukewarm Christian is that he will be spewed out of the mouth of Jesus. That Christian is wretched, pitiable, poor, blind, and naked. Meaning he does not care about his neighbors. He reads the Bible but does not understand the meaning, the Holy Spirit is grieved (Ephesians 4:30) and quench (1 Thess. 5:19) belongs to the foolish virgins and servant of one talent and receives the judgment about man. He does not care if persons respects the law of God, is selfish. He collects himself earthly things, a nice luxury house and car. He might give his tithes, but mostly more as an obligation than with a cheerful heart. Sometimes prays, but only a short time without pleading and using Bible texts.
Jesus stands at the door and knocks
Jesus stands at your door and He knocks, asking you to open your heart to Him. Asking you to be a testimony of Him, proclaiming the Bible, Gods values and norms. Opening your heart to the poor, to visit the sick, the persons in prison, to proclaim the unbeliever. Protesting againt injustice and laws which goes against God, for example the genero ideologia (which is a very dangerous ideologia), abortus, euthanasia, etc. Supporting financially His work of evangelism and missionary. Fulfilling the order of Jesus in Matthew 28:19-20
The Christian who soil their garments
Now, do not get angry with me, for I am going to give your examples from daily life.
1. The pastor who enriched himself from the church. Who has a mansion of 5 million dollars. Who has a farm, to enrich himself more, but not to feed the poor.
2. The pastor speaking in tongues and prophesying. Revealing the sins of persons in the church. But his personal life is shamefully, full of robbery, full of fornication, unable to support his family. Sleeping with church members. Not keeping up to his promises. His wife is sleeping with various men, because he is not capable to support his family. The daughter of 15 years old, sees his parents and already have several sexual relations.
3. The pastors who preach Bible text out of their contexts and proclaim a false gospel, see 2 Timothy 3:1-7. Teaching one can continue to live in the world because Jesus already died for ALL SINS on the cross, no need for repentance. In contrast to the preaching of John the Baptist (Marcus 1:5) to repent from sin and be born-again as a child of God and leave the world of satan, loving the worldly things.
4. The persons who teach that the state of Israel is not the fulfilling of Ezekiel 36-37, because the Church has taken the place of Israel. They forget Romans 11:13-24 that the Church is grafted into the olive tree and root of Israel. These persons are false teachers. And lead persons to the lake of fire.
They are the workers of Revelation 3:2 "I know your works; you have the name of being alive, and you are dead".
Matthew 7:21-23 Not every one who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?' And then will I declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from me, you evildoers.
