The Spirituality Thermometer

I pray daily and keep a consistent attitude of prayer.

I pray every now and then, especially if something major is happening.

I just got saved and I'm excited about praying. I try to pray every day.

I don't pray as often or as much as I'd like to. I get to pray a few times a week.

I pray when I feel like it.

I pray every Sunday at church and before meals. I pray every now and then as well.

I don't pray that often, if ever, during the week.

I don't read my Bible that often. In fact, I don't even know where it is.

I might get to it every now and then.

I read and study my Bible a few times a week, even though I know I could do more.

I might get to read it once a week.

I have it at church all the time and read it then.

I read and study my Bible on a daily basis and I'm always meditating on the Word throughout the day.

I just got saved and I'm excited about God's Word. I read it as much as possible, even if it's not daily.

I am not satisfied but I have decided it is too hard to serve God. I yield to sin too much.

Some days I feel happy and think I am fine. On other days I don't feel that good and maybe I need to change.

I was satisfied but it took too much time to live a good Christian life. The Lord will do it for me.

I just came to the Lord and I am eager to live my life for Jesus Christ.

I confessed Jesus as my Lord and I got all I needed right then.

I usually do ok unless I am around others that don't live for the Lord like they should. I like being part of the crowd and don't want to offend them.

Jesus Christ is my Lord and the Holy Ghost has enabled me to lay aside the things that do not please the Lord.

I have overcome many old habits by the grace of God and I am getting stronger each day.

Most of them Christian people are hypocrites anyway. I go when I can. I usually get there late and leave early.

I just came to Jesus Christ and I am learning to attend church on a regular basis.

I go to church often because they get me in and out in about forty five minutes. Sometimes they go over time and I want to leave. We go to church to have fun and meet friends anyway. Some preachers get too caught up in spiritual things.

I have church where ever I am at. Who needs a preacher anyway? We are all preachers and get our strength from Jesus alone.

I get so bored with church services. Most of the time, I doze off when they are preaching and hope they will get through soon. If it wasn't for the wild upbeat music, I probably wouldn't go anyway. The light show is pretty good too.

I don't always feel like going to church, I am tired from work and usually worn out.

Being in the right church has been important to me. I attend with the attitude that I know the Lord will impart His Spirit and Word to me so that I can develop more in the Lord.

Attending church and special meetings is a top priority in my life. I realize that I receive a special anointing each time I attend.

When I feel bad I go because I feel good when they tell me I am doing good. They don't put any pressure on me and accept me like I am.

It is almost like going to a movie, they keep me entertained and excited and I leave church feeling good.

They have coffee and snacks and it goes by fast so I don't have to stay long.

I don't have to attend a church.

I use to go often and was excited about God. I rarely go to church any more. I get the same feeling from going to a rock concert.

The Word of God tells me to.

I get to church a couple of times a month.

I believe the Bible and I go to church as regular as I can.

I don't commit to tithe and give offerings.Why should I do that? I give when I want to.

I really don't understand tithes and offerings, even though they talk about it. Sometimes, I think all they want is my money.

The key to financial and all success is obedience to the Bible. I give my tithes and offering to the Lord through my local church. I also support ministries that are building the Kingdom of God on earth.

All that stuff was under the law of the Old Testament. I am not under bondage anymore.

There was a preacher at church the other day that told stories that got me excited about giving. I gave all I had because I was so excited and pumped up about it. That is the only way I give.

I tried all that stuff and none of it works.

I have started giving tithes and offerings and plan to increase.

Who said we had to do this anyway? I don't feel like trying to study these things.

That is old school preaching and teaching, the grace of God takes care of me.

I only cuss and drink alcohol every now and then. Drinking a little bit helps me forget my problems and makes me a better person.

The Holy Spirit has given me the ability to allow this fruit to flow through my life.

I have experienced these in my life and I know I will develop more in them.

God's grace has covered it all. You don't have to do all those things anyway.

My God! I ain't going to try to do all that stuff, like I used too.

I got mature when I accepted Jesus Christ, why should I be concerned about it now. Don't your preacher tell you that?

I have heard of them but I do what I want to anyway.

Don't you know that there are no Apostles and Prophets today.

I believe in them and I desire to receive from them.

I desire to see these ministry gifts in operation and I receive from them and believe in them.

All I need is the pastor. Between God, him, and me, I am as mature as I will ever be. The Lord don't expect us to do all that stuff anyway.

Yes, I am glad some of these preachers found that out. It is much easier for me to serve God now.

Many preachers have taken this sin thing too far. I am glad I finally got a preacher that don't tell me about sin. I am free from any rule or law.

I agree, I don't have to confess my sin because I am already forgiven, by grace.

No, I believe that if you sin as a Christian, you must ask the Lord Jesus to forgive you.

As long as I feel good, I know everything is alright.

I am not really sure about this. Haven't you heard the new teaching about grace that is going around? We may already be forgiven. But that sounds better than having to ask for forgiveness all the time.

No it was written to unbelievers, not Christians.

My Lord! I sin so much I could never confess it all. I give up.

I agree.

Sometimes I do not even feel like I'm saved. I wonder if it does any good to confess my sins.

I don't know if it is or not and I have too much going on to look into it.

Preachers and other Christians say it is, but I've had professors and other educated people say that there are mistakes in it. I think the educated people are smarted than the preachers.

I don't beleive that the Bible is all true.

Sometimes I wonder if God or man wrote it.

I don't know if it is or not, but it seems to have worked for me so far.

That is absolutely true.

I believe it is, and I am learning to practice it in my life.

God chooses who He will heal. It's all up to Him.

God does not work miracles today.

Physical healing is for everyone today, I have never experienced it in my life.

We don't have healing services at our church, but we say we believe it in our tenants of faith.

Yes, physical healing is for us today.

They say healing is for today, but when I feel bad, I'm not sure if it is or not.

Yes, our church believes it but I never hear anyone speaking in tongues.

Speaking in tongues is of the devil.

I believe in it, but I can't remember when the last I spoke in tongues was.

I believe it because the Bible says so.

Yes, and I try to do so as often as possible.

If you say so. But I have given up on the whole deal.

I try to pray daily, but sometimes I don't get to it. But I do many times a week.

I don't believe in praying in tongues.

I pray in tongues when I feel like it, which isn't that often.

I hear them mention it in church every now and then, but I'm not even sure if I'm filled with the Holy Spirit.

Whenever something big is going on, I am praying in tongues all the time.

I pray in tongues, often, daily.

I just found out about praying in tongues and just started doing so.

I've been trying to confess the Word daily, but I seem to miss a few days during the week.

I don't believe in that name it and claim it mentality.

Rarely. I've got better things to do.

I constantly say what the BIble says.

That's just positive thinking and that doesn't work.

I have a few scriptures I confess if something bad might happen.

I believe they are natural gifts you are born with or learn.

I don't care about those, why should I?

Either way I like when they show up because it makes me feel good.

They don't ever talk about these things in my church so I don't know a whole lot about them.

I believe in the gifts of the Spirit and I believe that I will experience them soon.

Yes, they are supernatural gifts from God to the Christian.

I may smell like smoke after the BIG fire is over but at least I'll make it.

Jesus don't need to judge me, I am already forgiven.

Every believer will stand before the judgement seat of Christ. We need to live according to the Word of God.

I pray and seek God for His direction and I obey what the Word of God says to the best of my ability.

Let's just hope that time doesn't come any time soon.

Heck yes! I watch anything I want to when I get ready.

I know its wrong but I endure to the end.

We have to watch these things so we can be aware of what is going on in the world.

I do my best to avoid all evil things.

I rarely watch TV programs or movies because I am too busy with the work of the Lord.

I do, but I can just ask for forgiveness for them later.

Lord yes! What is wrong with a good joke. It helps us to be relevant with the world.

Cussing, sipping, sopping, smoking, shooting, snorting and talking anyway I want is fine. Are you crazy?

I keep a check on anything that comes from my mouth. I don't even hang around people that talk filthy.

I do not for the most part, but every now and then something may slip that I am watching.

I do, but I can just ask for forgiveness for them later.

I pray for the Lord to lead me to people to witness to all the time.

When I feel like it.

Everybody is mostly good anyway but I say something once in a while.

Salvation is left up to God. Why should I witness?

Every now and then I share my faith. I know I should do it more often.

Never. In fact, I think someone should share their faith with me.

I am sick, stupid!

By the stripes of Jesus, I am healed!

I bear my burden.

God put it on me to help me learn.

It is a wonder that I am not dead from all the sin I am commiting.

I get into the Word and find out what it says about my healing. I am learning to confess God's Word to overcome all sickness.
