I am in  the midst of this personal study of a Lukewarm Church. This study of why so many churches don't preach Gospel, barely mention the Name of Jesus, that don't accept the gifts from God as promised. Certainly I have never heard the harshness of Repentance hover across the always-large crowd.

John 14 (look at me quoting the Bible by Verse!)

New International Version
Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.

New Living Translation
“I tell you the truth, anyone who believes in me will do the same works I have done, and even greater works, because I am going to be with the Father.

English Standard Version
“Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father.

The Way, the Truth, and the Life
…11Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me—or at least believe on account of the works themselves. 12Truly, truly, I tell you, whoever believes in Me will also do the works that I am doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. 13And I will do whatever you ask in My name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.…

When did the Power of the Name of Jesus change for so many Christians? Remember, I am newly entering into this Fire that God gave me.... and yet already I am struggling with this division in the Church. In my life, the Name of Jesus still Heals, the Name of Jesus still delivers from evil (unclean spirits), The Power is still in the Name. I am going to explore this forever, and may be able to write a deeper thought as I learn more.

For now, Walk with Me, learn with me, share with me.  I am new and I am open. I am only interested in The Truth. LUKEWARM churches are to be SPIT OUT. This is scary and difficult when we sit so comfortably in our worship and gospels with emoticons and self-help check lists. Oh, to Wake Up and Serve the Lord. Walk with Me - study and share deeply. Shake your roots and be renewed and look and listen a-fresh with me. Teach me. Learn with Me. Let's go Warriors.
