I think we need to look at each church, and evaluate which church we belong to. In the US, a lot of churches are Laodicia churches - lukewarm, no true worship, people at church because it's Sunday, or out of habit. Or even so that they can claim Christianity and use it as "fire insurance."
Fire insurance religion is useless. Worse, it's nauseating to Christ. There are aspects of all seven churches in each of us. We should use the commendations and corrections to keep ourselves on track.
I've also heard that the churches describe the history of the church, with the last church - the one that's active in the end times - being the lukewarm one.
