Christians face 3 problems today
They’re either hot for the wrong things
Cold about damn near everything
Or they’re lukewarm
Those that are too hot
Are on fire about the wrong things
They talk more about hate than they do love
That’s not what Jesus stood for
Hate isn’t what he died for
Love is what he died for
Love for all people
Regardless of what sin they commit
Jesus died for Love to save us from ourselves
Cold Christians are content to live their
Quiet lives content to not change a thing about the world
Content to live in their apathy
We were not called to live quiet lives
Look at the author and founder of our faith
He did not leave a quiet life
He was bold
He was decisive and divisive
He shook the world to it’s foundations
And still does so to this day
Lukewarm when you are neither one or the other
Somehow you’re in between
But still doing a piss poor job of it
How I wish to be on fire for the right things
But I’m part of the problem I’m neither hot nor cold
I’m lukewarm
I show up to church every Sunday but I do nothing
I love my God
I have seen and felt his mighty hand
But I do nothing
I’d say I was cold
But I ‘m not content to leave the world
In its status quo
I want to shake this world to its very core
I want to help ignite a revolution
In the souls of humankind
I want us to be on fire about love
About acceptance
I want us to love the downtrodden and take care of them
I want us to hold and heal the broken
I want to do all of these things
But I don’t know how
So I write
Hoping one day It’ll spark a fire
Which grows into a bonfire
That from afar looks like a forest fire
