Things God hates

Deut. 12, 13

Yes, there are things God hates.

One easily found passage is Prov. 6:17-19 which says He hates;  (Proud) haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood (as in abortion), a heart that devises (dreams up) wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil, a false witness who pours out lies and a person who stirs up conflict in the (Christian or family) community.

Add to that: detestable things, such as burning your children in the fire as a religious sacrifice; setting up a religious statue to worship; wickedness (evil committed consciously).

Summarily, God hates sin because it is the opposite of what He intended for us to do. It robs us of His blessing which automatically comes when we live according to His righteous plan.

Imagine the shattering emotion of Heaven when the Heavenly Father made His pre-emminent Son to BE SIN for us.

For this reason, the following has to be one of the most significant scriptures in the Bible:

“…The proof of God’s amazing love is this: that it was while we were sinners that Christ died for us.” Rom. 5:8 -JB Phillips
