Apocalipsis 3:16 Meaning and Commentary

Revelation 3:16

So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot,
&c.] A lukewarm professor is one that serves God and mammon; that halts between two opinions, and knows not what religion is best, and cares little for any, yet keeps in a round of duty, though indifferent to it, and contents himself with it; and is un concerned about the life and power of godliness, and takes up with the external form of it; and has no thought about the glory of God, the interest of Christ and truth; and this was too much the case of this church, at least of a great number of its members; wherefore it was very loathsome to Christ, hence he threatens:

I will spew thee out of my mouth;
this shows how nauseous lukewarmness is to Christ, insomuch that on account of it he would not own and acknowledge her as his; but even cast her out, unchurch her, and have no more any such imperfect church state upon earth, as he afterwards never will, this is the last; nor is there any church state, or any remains of one in Laodicea; it is indeed quite uninhabited.

Apocalipsis 3:16 In-Context

14 »Escribe al ángel de la iglesia de Laodicea:Esto dice el Amén, el testigo fiel y veraz, el soberano de la creación de Dios:
15 Conozco tus obras; sé que no eres ni frío ni caliente. ¡Ojalá fueras lo uno o lo otro!
16 Por tanto, como no eres ni frío ni caliente, sino tibio, estoy por vomitarte de mi boca.
17 Dices: “Soy rico; me he enriquecido y no me hace falta nada”; pero no te das cuenta de cuán infeliz y miserable, pobre, ciego y desnudo eres tú.
18 Por eso te aconsejo que de mí compres oro refinado por el fuego, para que te hagas rico; ropas blancas para que te vistas y cubras tu vergonzosa desnudez; y colirio para que te lo pongas en los ojos y recobres la vista.
