How do we know that we should be zealous for Christ?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible encourages zeal for Christ as part of a believer's response to His love and grace, which includes repentance and a passionate pursuit of holiness.

Zeal for Christ is essential in the Christian life, especially as seen in the statement from Revelation 3 where Jesus calls the Laodiceans to be zealous and repent. This zeal stems from recognizing the grace and love of Christ, which compels us to respond not only with gratitude but with a fervent desire to live according to His will. A lack of zeal can indicate a lukewarm state, where one does not perceive their true spiritual condition. Believers are called to fervently seek after Christ, to pursue holiness, and to live out their faith actively, reflecting the heartfelt response to God's mercy and grace in their lives.
