What does it mean to be lukewarm in faith?

Answered in 1 source

Being lukewarm in faith refers to a lack of genuine commitment to Christ, characterized by complacency.

In Revelation 3:15-16, Jesus critiques the Laodicean church for being 'neither cold nor hot,' which signifies a dangerous complacency in their spiritual lives. Lukewarmness suggests a half-heartedness and an indifference towards the gospel and a relationship with Christ. This state is detrimental because it leads to self-deception, where one might think they are fine while being distant from the true vibrancy of faith. The call to be hot involves a zealous commitment to Christ, embracing His righteousness and proclaiming His truth, rather than settling for a nominal or cultural understanding of faith.
