HOT OR COLD?

I heard a popular and successful secular comedian's radio show the other morning. I was thrilled when I heard him interviewed on PBS. He shared that he was raised in church, his Mother never heard him perform, (she's deceased), because she was a godly woman and didn't want to see her son curse on stage. It was impressive to hear him say that before he agreed to the nationally syndicated radio show that he hosts, he insisted that the executives had to allow him to give God the first 15 minutes or there was no deal. WOW! that's an impressive stand for the Lord, (even for a sure-nuff believer).

When I tried to listen to the program, the first 15 minutes was fine, but , WHOA! what I heard afterward seemed to erase the effect of the first fifteen minutes. I had to turn it off, it was grieving my spirit. I got to thinking, the Apostle John writes by divine inspiration to the Laodicean church in Revelations 3:15,16 -- ..."I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then, becuase you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth." That's graphic, I know, but God is like, look dude, either you're a cold Christian comedian or a hot Christian comedian -- I don't have lukewarm Christian comedians. I spit those out. So decide. Are you hot or cold?

Experiencing a major SELAH moment here people.
