Revelation 3:18
Compare all
16 So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither1 cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.  
17 Because you say, a‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing’—and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked—  
18 I counsel you ato buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and bwhite garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see.  
19 aAs many as I love, I rebuke and bchasten. Therefore be zealous and repent.  
20 Behold, aI stand at the door and knock. bIf anyone hears My voice and opens the door, cI will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.  
21 To him who overcomes aI will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.

Revelation 3:16-19

At the same time that the Philadelphia group is promised protection, the Laodicean group is found so distasteful, so unqualified because of a lackadaisical, seemingly couldn't-care-less, worldly, sitting-on-the-fence, neutral attitude that is nothing less than idolatrous. Their problem is self-love and they show their lack of need of Christ by being unwilling to make the sacrifices of a slave of Jesus Christ. It is a scathing denunciation. They are to be spewed out for the purpose of going into the fire.

Fire, when used symbolically to represent a trial, is always viewed as either destructive, purifying or both. Meaning destructive to some, and purifying to others.

We can reach a conclusion here. Conclusion 3 is that lukewarm, uncommitted fence-sitters are going into the fire.

Excerpted from A Place of Safety? (Part 5)
