No, we are not going to talk about the Christian song group! 

We are going to look into the gospel and what it has to say about the mercy of God and the transforming power it should have on our lives. 

When we forget or take for granted the great mercy that has been extended to us from the Father of all mercies, we will definitely drift into lukewarm casual Christianity. 

We have been examining ourselves as we travel through the Beatitudes to see if we have possibly slipped into being lukewarm as the word of God portrays the last church age to be in the book of Revelation. 

We've examined ourselves by asking, are we walking in humility, are we maintaining a sensitivity to the sin that we sometimes justify, do we have a gentle spirit, do we hunger and thirst for righteousness, and today, do we live with a heart of mercy because we have been shown mercy?

We can't live out one of these without the other. Humility is the foundation, but each of the rest builds upon the others.

Are you living a lukewarm life? Has your church become lukewarm in its dedication to the Risen Savior?
