Neither Hot Nor Cold
You know how like in revelation God is telling the church because they are lukewarm He's gonna spit them out? An you know how everyone says that means God wants you to be either for Him or against Him?
I heard a guy on the radio and he was like this scripture has been horribly mis-interpreted. It goes back to context. He called it "cultural context."
In short, his point was this:
Cold water rejuvinates and refreshes you on a hot day
Hot water soothes aches and pains (hot cocoa warms your insides)
Lukewarm water does not refresh or soothe.
Therefore what God is saying is, "You are neither refreshing nor soothing, so I'm gonna spit you out."
Question: Why would God want anyone to be against Him? The whole point of sending Christ was to save the world not make enemies.
I like this guy's argument. Makes a lot more sense.
