Hi everyone,
I been looking for someone to give me a good explanation of the verses in Revelation about lukewarmness and whether it teaches that a Christian can lose his salvation.
I heard a sermon by Paul Washer, and he said that a true Christian can't do anything to make God love him more, and can't do anything to make God love him less. This is very liberating, and ignites a love for God and a desire to be more like him.
But how does that go along with the passage on lukewarmness in Rev. 3:14-21? Can someone explain that passage? Does it say that a true Christian can lose salvation?
I also found this article on the subject: Why did Jesus speak so strongly against lukewarm faith?
That site seems to have a reformed point of view.
At first that link explains that a true Christian can't lose salvation, but then it says this part:

Does spitting out a true christian out of his mouth mean that the christian will lose salvation? I'm confused by that article.
