The State of the Western Church mirrors the worst admonitions of the Seven Churches of Revelation. It also mirrors the state of the denominations that serve West Europe. They are not even lukewarm - they are apostate. The Pope needs to clean his own house. An inability to discipline Church leaders and the flock, to enforce orthodoxy and scriptural truth, and to spread the good news of the Gospel has led the Church to this point. Juxtapose the early Church, a Church that was persecuted and despised, yet grew quickly, to the new age Church that is losing to flock in droves. The state of the Lutheran, Episcopal, Catholic, Methodist, etc Churches is almost uniform in their lack of faithfulness to the Scriptures. The lukewarm will be spewed out - the totally apostate were warned "Now turn from your sins! If you don't, I will come to you soon and fight against those people with the sword that comes out of my mouth.
