→Sloth in Christians
Christians guilty of sloth have no interest in learning more about Christianity, about the Bible, about [[witnessing]] to others, about [[Christian apologetics|defending the faith]], about [[corporal and spiritual works of mercy]], or about the Four Last Things: [[Death]], [[Last Judgment|Judgment]], [[Heaven]] and [[Hell]]. The commandment in [http://biblehub.com/commentaries/1_peter/3-15.htm 1 Peter 3:15] is either unknown or ignored. See [[Christian In Name Only]] and [[Invincible ignorance]].
