Crazy Love

This whole post is based off of my reading of "Crazy Love" by Francis Chan.

"A lukewarm Christian is an oxymoron, there is no such thing."

Jesus says, "I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one of the other! So, because you are lukewarm-neither hot nor cold-I am about to spit you out of my mouth." (Revelation 3:15-16) Jesus wants your all or nothing, He says, "If you love me, you will obey what I command." (John 14:15) Jesus then commands us to "Love the Lord God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind." (Matthew 22:37) he does not command us to only do things so that we can go to Heaven when we die. He does not command us to be lukewarm! It is too hard to live like that anyway. Once we fall in love with Jesus, and have a relationship with him, we KNOW we are going to Heaven because through Jesus, and only through Jesus, do we get to have grace. Jesus lived so that he can save us, so that he can save everyone. 

"but because Jesus lives forever, he has a permanent priesthood. Therefore he is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them." (Hebrews 7:24-25)
