When we don't Fear God.
Why is fear rarely present in our hearts when we talk about God? Why do we no longer tremble at the sound of His name? Why are we unable as a church today to understand how against sin God is? Why does our sin no longer leave us begging for God's mercy? I believe it is because we have had the message "God is Love" without the message "God is Holy and demands that we be Holy as well". We are no longer told that God means what He says in verses like "Behold, I am coming soon, bringing my recompense with me, to repay each one for what he has done. I am the Alphand the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the Rnd. Blessed are those who wash their robes, so that they may have the right to the tree of life and that they may enter the city by the gates. Outside are the dogs and sorcerers and the sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and everyone who loves to practise falsehood. (Revelation 22:12-15)", "so because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold I will spit you from My mouth (Revelation )", "and if anyone takes away from the words of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the Holy city, which are described in this book. (Revelation 22:19)"
