Re: Who Does God Hate?
Friend, your opinions on what you think God tells us is bupkus.
The Bible was written for the simplest of beign to understand. This is what He had every possible life scenario covered. No opinions or thoughts like "what God meant..."
Lets look at little more at Proverbs, shall we? A little less cherryu picking and a little more context.
Proverbs 8:13-20
13 The fear of the Lord is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.
14 Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have strength.
15 By me kings reign, and princes decree justice.
16 By me princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth.
17 I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.
18 Riches and honour are with me; yea, durable riches and righteousness.
19 My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and my revenue than choice silver.
20 I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment:
No where does it say God will love you if you love Him. He states if you love Him, He may be nice to you, His choice. No where in the Bible is a Golden Ticket(c) guaranteed. All God promises is that if we do all He commands, he will consider us to come ands sit on His right hand.
I think you need to re-consider your position on speaking for God and trying to manipulate His Word.
