Lukewarm Christians Poem by Qiniso Mogale

They are self righteous,
They are satisfied and don't want help,
They are content with who they are,
They are convinced they are always right in their own opinions,
These are the lukewarm Christians.

They see no harm in failing to win lost souls,
They do no introspection to see if their actions are aligned with the Word of God,
The spirit of lukewarmness has invaded many a Christian,
Lukewarmness has settled comfortably in the Church.

Lukewarm Christians never died to self,
Lukewarm Christians listen to people-talk not God-talk,
They are pleasers of men rather than pleasers of God,
They prefer darkness and shun the light,
They are doubters of God's Word,
They doubt the promises of God.

Lukewarm Christians are halfhearted in their walk with God,
They haven't completely surrendered their lives to Christ,
They don't have the humility of Christ,
They don't walk in the steps of Christ,
Their steps are arrogant,
Their steps are rebellious,
Theirs are not steps of faith and obedience.

Lukewarm Christians fail God,
Lukewarm Christians disappoint God,
Lukewarm Christians annoy God,
Lukewarm Christians grieve the Holy Spirit,
God spews out lukewarm Christians,
Lukewarm Christians stamp Christ's blood underfoot.
