~HATE~


~HATE~
I'm very on the edge on whether to do pleasure. I just don't know what I would write or anything so that will be one of the far later ones.
Now We are on HATE. Mind numbing, concience ripping hate. Hate so powerful it can do almost anything. Hate that could and will some day destroy the world. It all started with hate. Stupid lucifer. He just had to go and screw things up. Anyways hate is something that influences every desicion you make. If you hate some one usually you are going to act like you hate them. It can just take over. Then you are no longer the driver of your actions, just the passenger. Not that hate is unavoidable.
"Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?"
(Matthew 5:43-47). I know that almost all of you have most likely heard this verse but it's one that is informative. We should love everyone. And everyone says that but many people actually do? I know I despise( I don't know how close that is to hate and what your deffinition is) but I despise a lot of people just because they are complete morons. They really don't care at all. All they do is flirt with girls, cuss, and make fun of EVERYONE. In that order though cussing is very close to first (i don't agree with cussing so you know. I'm not so sure it's a sin but it's just not something good to do) now I suppose I should love these people but what is their to love?! Jk yes I suppose they are all unique but still. You know? Hate is deffined as
a. To feel hostility or animosity toward." and most people get it and understand it. Some people describe it as a cancer and it slowly eats away at who we are and who we can be. In a quote by martin Luther " Hatred paralyzes life; love releases it. Hatred confuses life; love harmonizes it. Hatred darkens life; love illumines it "
--Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Once again it's a love hate thing.

psalm 34:21 "Evil shall slay the wicked; And they that HATE the righteous shall be condemned." once again saying that it is bad to hate and what the consequences might be.

Psalm 97:10 "O ye that love Jehovah, hate evil: He preserveth the souls of his saints; He delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked." now in This verse it says hate evil. At first I was like I though we weren't supposed to hate but then I thought and figured. It's okay to hate how things are and why they are. It's hating people that we arnt supposed to. Now that leads to why are people different than things. Because some people act like inanimate objects sometimes. I figured it's because since we are made in Gods image we are really hating a part of God. And here's a verse that supports that claim sort of.
"if a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen? "
--1 John 4:20
Other verses that have to do with Hate-----
"He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now. He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him."
--1 John 2:9,10
"Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him."
--1 John 3:15

"The fear of Jehovah is to hate evil: Pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, And the perverse mouth, do I hate."
Proverbs 8:13



Now I will apologize for my lack of planning I felt like I skipped around and I will try to fix that with the next one. ONCE AGAIN COMMENT!!! that let's me know if what i'm writing is good or if I should write about something else or quit writing. Please give input. THANKS FOR READING. And if you enjoyed this please show your friends and tell them about it.

Again, jumpiness is not the worst thing...your formatting will come with time, just keep writing. The only reason I have structure is because my church gave me a reading plan and the SOAP method. But anyway, the one philosophical point I'd like to challenge is your analysis of Psalm 97:10 and your general statement on hating evil. I believe the lesson to be learned is "hate the sin, not the sinner." Not to say you're wrong about hating the world's evil, but it might be a bit more focused than that. And by "hating" the sin, I really mean hating what it is doing to the sinner and helping the sinner to find Jesus. We are all sinners; the best we can do is reject sin and ask for forgiveness. You don't have to agree with me...just my opinion.

I don't know if I totally understand what you are trying to say. I didn't mean for it to sound like hate the sinner. I meant you should hate the sin that they do and try to do somthing about it. If that is what your asking...
Thanks for commenting!

Sorry that was unclear; all I meant was that I see your point about hating the world's evil, but I think the verse is about hating sin, specifically. I wasn't suggesting that you implied you hated the sinner. Make more sense now?

Yes thank you!
