June 3rd, 2016 by Pastor SolleyProv 30:5-8 Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.
6 Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.
7 Two things have I required of thee; deny me them not before I die:
8 Remove far from me vanity and lies: give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with food convenient for me:
KJV
The conservative stands upon the Word of God, the spiritual conservative. The liberal stands apart from God’s Word. Then there is the moderate who wishes to stand in the middle. He claims to believe the Bible, claims to know the Lord, yet he refuses to follow the Bible or the Lord, he stands more in the camp of the liberal while having the words of a conservative. This one makes both camps and the Lord Himself sick. (Rev 3:15-16 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. 16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.) Unfortunately this is where most people stand politically and spiritually as well, in the middle. This one does neither camp and good, he just is there taking up space and wasting time. Churches are full of people who have the language but not the actions of salvation, not the works that should follow true salvation. These one stand in the middle, not willing to speak out against error, nor are they willing to do anything positive for the Lord. They will not fight against the church, nor will they fight for it, they are moderate. God would rather we be hot or cold, at least people would know where we stand. In this day and age we need the conservative to stand up, speak out, and be noticed.
