spit out the lukewarm
So do I condemn utterly our harmful and ridiculous temporising and damn the ugly, shameful and loathsome Monster of neutrality. May God spit out the lukewarm, that is, the neutralists who are neither warm nor cold seeing that the Lord Christ holds such for his enemies in bright clear words when he says that he who is not for him is against him.
