God’s Word vividly speaks of ‘vomit’ and
‘vomiting.1
While not my favorite topic, it’s worth
my commenting.
The most vivid and vile picture
is of Jesus, Himself,
Vomiting out certain people from
His church commonwealth.2
It’s amazing, people who believe re. the
flood,
Think that God and Jesus are only about
Love.
Rejecting the notion that Jesus Christ is
God’s Judge,
From their ‘only Love’ notion, they
will refuse to budge.
Some believe the church is a safe shelter
From hell’s eternal heat that will
swelter.
And once they are in this ‘church safety
zone’,
From Jesus, they will never hear a groan.
Thus they live, enjoying their lives, you
know the drill,
With so little consciousness of The Father’s
will.
Of Him and His will, they know just enough
to feel only a little ‘heat’,
Refusing being ‘hot’, ‘cause before their
culture, they wish to be ...discrete.
Remaining unwilling to become God’s cultural
misfits,
They resist His work to make them into Kingdom
retrofits.
Resisting all His work, their hearts and
minds to re-sculpture,
They submit to being cultivated by their
culture.
My rhyme describes no person or church, in
particular,
But believers from all ages who were/are so
secular.
So entrenched in their culture, as in it, they’ve been
stewed,
Unaware that, from God’s mouth, lukewarmers
can be spewed!
Peter warns us, at God’s own house, judgment
begins.3
Ezekiel warns us about goats in
sheepskins.4
Friend, with God,
There’s no benefit to a familiar
association.
To Him, pretense is simply another
abomination! 5
Looking into God’s pretense mirror,
does your image become clear?
Please, Sir and Ma’am, do it now… and again;
daily into it peer.
Also…
Check your spiritual temperature as
you grow old,
For God’s thermometer only reads… hot
or cold.
Spiritually Puked,
Exclusively
“Warmers”

2 Revelation 3:16
3 1 Peter 4:17
4 Ezekiel 9:6. Today,
spiritual goats in spiritual sheepskins are people confessing saving faith in
Christ, but whose lives belie their confession.
5 “And He (Christ) said to them, ‘You are
those who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts. For what is
highly esteemed among men is an abomination in the sight of God’” (Spiritual
lukewarmness is so very highly esteemed in our culture.)
