"When we listen to the warnings from God, we always experience a true revival." — Pastor Brian

The Bible teaches we should not be idle nor lazy, and that we should set our face towards God. Spiritual mediocrity results when you adopt sin and learn to live a life tolerant of a lack of faith, saying, “I’m not going to get any better. So, I’m going to learn how to be happy with no faith. The lukewarm world has boiled everything down to, “If I’m not going to hell, then it’s all right.”

7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.

It is of immeasurable importance for Christians to have a heart that is willing to be taught and receive instruction. “Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be still wiser; Teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.” (Proverbs 9:9)

Staying focused on Christ is difficult, but is an essential part of the Christian faith. When we seek to daily grow, anticipate suffering, spend time reflecting in God's Word, and spend time with other believers, we can better focus on Christ and a life committed to Him.

We have an entire Old Testament filled with commandments. In the New Testament however, Christ leaves us with a new commandment that surpasses far beyond today's worldly definition of love.
