45 Things Which God Hates

45 Things Which God Hates

There is One thing in which God hates and that is “SIN”

We cannot live in sin and think we are going to heaven, how wrong can you be. That is a lie from the devil. If, you knowingly sin, and do not ask to be forgiven then you will end up in hell, no doubt about it. And, I sure don’t want to be there.

The things in which I am going to list here, Please take heed, as they are letting you know things in your life you just might need to change, if you are wanting to go to Heaven when Jesus returns or when you die.

Just in Proverbs, notes 14 types of sins and people that God hates due to sin (actions of sin). Let these be a guideline to what we are not to do and what we are to do and act. More are listed that is throughout the Bible.

HATRED, GOD’S WORD  Proverbs 6:16-19

Is it wrong to hate? That depends on the object of our hate. We should never hate another person, because every person is a unique creation of God, an eternal soul that can be redeemed. But we should certainly hate the sinful things that even our most cherished loved ones do. We are to love the sinner but hate the sin. 

Doers & Mockery 2 Kings 2:14, 15 ; 2:23-25 

Doers: We cannot live in our past, or on our past, or for our past. We must except the heritage of the past and trust the Living God for Our Power to overcome our past and live in the spiritual form. Satan, want to use anything and everything he feels like he has to or can do, to keep us from the Power of the Living God. And, stop us from receiving the Love of Jesus Christ. 

God is Our Power today and forever. Problems, needs God’s servant may leave us, but God’s Spirit goes on and on and keeps working.

Mockery : Even youth who think they know it all or even better for that matter, God rightly judged them for it. God is patient with the mockers, but one day, His judgment will fall on them.

IS IT EVER APPROPRIATE TO HATE ANYONE OR ANYTHING? 

Leviticus 19:17 . . .Do not nurse hatred in your heart for any of your relatives. 

Ecclesiastes 3:8 . . . A time to love and a time to hate. 

Psalm 97:10 . . . You who love the Lord, hate evil! 

1 John 3:15 . . . Anyone who hates another Christian is really a murderer at heart. 

Matthew 5:43-44 . . . You have heard that the law of Moses says, “Love your neighbor” and hate your enemy. But I say, love your enemies! We are to love all people and hate all sin. When we truly love God we will hate sin. Are you drifting into a love for sinful things? This may be an indicator of a declining love for God. 

WHAT CAUSES HATRED? 

Galatians 5:19-23 . . . When you follow the desires of your sinful nature, your lives will produce these evil results . . . But when the Holy Spirit controls our lives, he will produce this kind of fruit in us. Hatred comes from following our own sinful desires. Instead, we must allow the Holy Spirit to fill our lives, leaving no room for hatred. 

Esther 5:9 . . . What a happy man Haman was as he left the banquet! But when he saw Mordecai sitting at the gate, not standing up or trembling nervously before him, he was furious. Haman hated Mordecai because he refused to bow down before him. This petty jealousy, a hunger for recognition, drove Haman to insane hatred that would not be satisfied until Mordecai was killed. Be careful! Petty jealousy can lead to hatred, which can lead to violent thoughts or actions. 

WHY DO SOME PEOPLE BEGIN TO HATE OTHERS WHOM THEY THOUGHT THEY LOVED?

Judges 15:2 . . . “I really thought you hated her,” her father explained, “so I gave her in marriage to your best man. But look, her sister is more beautiful than she is. Marry her instead.” Did Samson hate his wife? He certainly gave that impression to her father. In his fury at his wife (Judges 14:19), he went home to his parents, giving the impression that he had abandoned her. 

This led to bigamy, destruction, and ultimately murder. Anger and hatred bear bitter fruits with seeds of destruction. 

HOW DO WE LET GO OF HATRED? 

Proverbs 15:1 . . . A gentle answer turns away wrath, but harsh words stir up anger. Get rid of anger. Anger leads to bitterness, which leads to hatred. 

Micah 6:8 . . . This is what he requires: to do what is right, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God. Mercy and humility are powerful weapons against hatred. 

Ephesians 4:31-32 . . . Get rid of all bitterness . . . Instead, be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another. Forgiveness stops hatred. 

Colossians 3:18-19 . . . You wives must submit to your husbands . . . And you husbands must love your wives. Humble submission and love cast out hatred. 

WE CANNOT LOVE GOD AND HATE GOD’S PEOPLE

1 John 4:20 . . . If someone says, “I love God,” but hates another Christian, that person is a liar; for if we don’t love people we can see, how can we love God, whom we have not seen?

FOLLOWING JESUS MAY CAUSE SOME TO HATE YOU

John 17:14 . . . The world hates them because they do not belong to the world.

1 Peter 4:14-19 . . . It is no shame to suffer for being a Christian. Those who love sin hate those who are against sin. If you take a stand against sin, expect opposition. 

PROMISE FROM GOD: 

1 John 4:20 . . . If someone says, “I love God,” but hates another Christian, that person is a liar; for if we don’t love people we can see, how can we love God, whom we have not seen?
