A person who is born again should be either hot or cold. When God said you must be hot or cold he was not saying "for or against."
He was saying you must be hot, on fire for Him or cold meaning a refreshing drink of cold water is the denotation in the original language.
God would never want anyone to be against Him. Both hot and cold are for Christ.
Those who are spewed out of God's mouth are those who are lukewarm, that is they are indifferent to Him. Indifference is a form of hatred. When someone is indifferent they lack empathy for the well being of someone else, this is hatred.
Revelation 3:14-16 "14 To the angel of the church in Laodicea write: These are the words of the Amen, the faithful and true Witness, the Originator of God’s creation. 15 I know your deeds; you are neither cold nor hot. How I wish you were one or the other! 16 So because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to vomit you out of My mouth!…"
