And to expose our hearts to truth and consistently refuse or neglect to obey the impulses it arouses is to stymie the motions of life within us and, if persisted in, to grieve the Holy Spirit into silence.
A.W.Tozer
For the first time in my adult life, I feel like I'm obeying those impulses of life, imparted by the Holy Spirit. You have to train yourself to really listen and not be entertained by the messages at church, or the books you read. If Jesus said He would spew the lukewarm church out of His mouth, then they are not saved...He is certainly not embracing the Lukewarm "believer". I think we need to seriously contemplate the question, "am I really saved?" Not to create fear, and to work harder, but to go the mat with God and wrestle it out, and test ourselves.
