Revelation 3 ... 14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; 15
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. 17 Because thou sayest, I am
rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest
not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and
naked:18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou
mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that
the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with
eyesalve, that thou mayest see. 19 As many as I love, I rebuke and
chasten:be zealous therefore, and repent. 20 Behold, I stand at the
door, and knock:if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come
in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. 21 To him that
overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also
overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.

These people were lukewarm toward things of God ... People who gorge themselves with natural food are often sluggish.
With
the Word of God, to stay alive, you must apply that word to your life
in a proper manner, doing the word of God. Otherwise you become dead
and even deceive yourself into thinking you are godly.
James 1 ...
22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own
selves. 23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is
like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:24 For he
beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what
manner of man he was. 25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of
liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a
doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
Also you have to believe and act by faith in God.
Heb.
3 ... 17 But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them
that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness? 18 And to whom
sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that
believed not? 19 So we see that they could not enter in because of
unbelief.
Heb. 4 ... 1 Let
us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his
rest, any of you should seem to come short of it. 2 For unto us was the
gospel preached, as well as unto them:but the word preached did not
profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it. 3 For we
which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in
my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest:although the works were
finished from the foundation of the world. 4 For he spake in a certain
place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day
from all his works. 5 And in this place again, If they shall enter into
my rest
6 Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter
therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because
of unbelief:7 Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To day,
after so long a time; as it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice,
harden not your hearts.
8 For if Jesus had given them rest, then
would he not afterward have spoken of another day. 9 There remaineth
therefore a rest to the people of God. 10 For he that is entered into
HIS rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from HIS
11 Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.
