can you say me it
Re 3:15I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
Re 3:16So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

I think we are seeing the coldness:
Matthew 24:
11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.


12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.


13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

Where do you see this coldness more evident?
A lack of hunger for God, to know Him.
I think you see it in the world with lack of trusting in a person..
To me there is a lack of fear of the Lord.
I think you see it still in churches dividing still, like big time now with Methodists over the LGBQ issue.

I'd agree with you if you said love for God more so than fear of Him
You are right about LOVE haha I think we humans are not capable of loving as the Lord asks. I mean we are given the 2 commandments regarding loving God with all our heart soul and mind, and loving our neighbor as our self. (Mt 22:37-39). then on top of it Messiah gives a new commandment to love
John 13:34

A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.

So to me we humans need to even ask God our Father to help us love him as Messiah loved Him... I have anyway.

Have you ever pondered what then if done this means and covers?? Mt:22:40
40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
what all is that, that it covers? wow I say. Help me Love you Father the way you love us.
