Please read Proverbs 6:16-19 before saying there is nothing God hates.

Hi anon. I have, of course, like any good pastors child, read 6:16-19. “Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil, a false witness who pours out lies and a man stirs up dissension among his brothers.”

My post is in reference to common sentiments of places like the Westboro Baptist Church, which attack minorities under the sign of “god hates you”.

Notice how this list doesn’t include any of the normal “god hates __” quotes? Gays, f*gs, sluts, ect? If anything, it condemns those who speak such lines.

Besides that, it is not our place to condemn other in Jesus name. We should only be doing our best to serve our neighbors with kindness and graciousness. Anyone yelling “god hates __” is severely misguided in their faith.

Jesus is kind. Jesus forgives. Jesus loves all his creations. Jesus does not practice hate.

Have a good day, anon, I pray Jesus soothes your soul.

#That passage states that god hates the people causing strife plotting against their neighbors attacking innocent people ect #These are the common actions of those who use the lords name as a weapon #Don’t question my Bible knowledge bros I am fully aware #I can confidently say that Jesus is disappointed in anyone whose telling someone else that “god hates you”#Also “hates” tends to mean something different in the Bible than it does now #God “hates” injustice because it is the antithesis of what god is #God doesn’t hate people #And hate in the context of biblical writers is more of “god does not agree with” “god is not for”#That I draw from my mother with her doctorate in ministry and biblical preaching #And masters in divinity
