American Christianity (Addressing Lukewarmness) | SavedNotSoftPodcast

So it's having a faith that isn't just, oh, I feel this way, but it's partnered with action. And so that's how we're saved, by grace, which is what God does. And then faith is our response to God's grace to us. Amen. And so Matthew 7, 21 through 23 says,

which is one of the Bible verses that people say that they're most scared of, is not everyone who says to me, Lord, Lord, will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, Lord, Lord, do we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons in your name before many miracles?

Then I will tell them plainly, I never knew you away from me, you evildoers." So that shows us that even though you may do all of these things and you're doing all the works, if you lack love, if you lack faith, if you lack putting your trust in the Lord, then it's done in vain because you could be doing all these things for Jesus and you could put God's name over anything all day.

But what really boils it down is that if you're not truly doing something for the sake of the kingdom of God, of how he's instructed and how he's called you to obey the then it's done in vain because you're only working off of your perception of who God is and not who he actually reveals and claims himself to be. Amen?

And so the lukewarmness that we're experiencing in America and the spiritual blindness of what we're experiencing is people not accepting and seeing the full picture and this real deceit that people are believing of, oh, if I just say I believe in Jesus, then I believe in Jesus. And there's a huge percentage of people who think that they are Christian.

A lot of people, a part of the American population that believe that they're Christian, but they are not. And that is not a person judging another person's salvation. That is simply just observing fruits from a tree because a Christian is not just someone who says, I believe in the name of Jesus.

But I want to talk about the difference between America and foreign countries because I believe a lot of people's faith would be shaken and tested and stretched if people went outside of the walls of America and saw the persecution and the way that people live who are Christian outside of the walls of America.

And so what that looks like is the past year, I had a great opportunity to go to Indonesia and also to go to Canada. Canada is like a sister. She's right up here. But Indonesia, that's on the opposite side of the whole entire world. So I saw two different nations who is experiencing Jesus Christ differently. I went to Canada in April.

And on the last day of me preaching at a conference there, I was sitting in a hotel and I was eating breakfast before I had to catch my flight with my now fiancee. And as we're eating breakfast, we're seeing a protest happening outside. And I'm like, man, what's going on? And we're seeing all these people protesting and I can't really hear what they're saying.
