What God Hates
Have you ever heard someone say, "I hate that"? Some people hate a lot of stuff. I was taught that hate is a strong word and I should avoid using it.

In Proverbs 6:16-19 we learn what the Lord hates. This is a list that we should take note of.

1. THE SIN OF THE EYE. “A proud look.” This reads literally, “haughty or lofty eyes,” meaning supreme disdain for everything and everybody.
2. THE SIN OF THE TONGUE. “A lying tongue.” A lying tongue is hateful to God, because He is the God of truth.
3. THE SIN OF THE HAND. “Hands that shed innocent blood.” This means to inflict pain and cruelty, a murderer, and cruel disposition.
4. THE SIN OF THE MIND. “A heart that devises wicked plans.” There are evil thoughts in all men’s hearts, but the devising and fabricating of them, making the heart the devil’s workshop, is the mark of utter depravity and wickedness, and is abhorrent to God.
5. THE SIN OF THE FEET. “Feet that are swift in running to evil.” Some not only do evil, but they do it with eagerness.
6. THE SIN OF THE HEART. “A false witness that speaks lies.” A low, mean, and contemptible character, whose very breath is loaded with falsehood.
7. THE SIN OF THE SPIRIT. “And one who sows discord among brethren.”

Quite a list, huh? It makes you think. Let our prayer be this: "Lord, we don't want to hate many things, but let us hate the things you hate and love the things you love."
