Cross Reference - Psalm 139:21


“Do I not hate those who hate Thee, O Lord! And do I not loathe those who rise up against Thee?”

“I behold the treacherous and loathe them, because they do not keep Thy Word.” Psalm 119:158

“And Jehu the son of Hanani the seer went out to meet him and said to King Jehoshaphat, ‘Should you help the wicked and love those who hate the Lord and so bring wrath on yourself from the Lord?’” II Chronicles 19:2

“I hate the assembly of evildoers, and I will not sit with the wicked.” Psalm 26:5

“I hate those who regard vain idols; but I trust in the Lord.” Psalm 31:6

Hate is a big word and most of us learned we are not to hate anyone; for we are not to judge another person. No one sees another’s heart except the Father. Yet, we can see and hate the deeds of those who DO evil -- for evil comes from the heart. And if we choose to judge an action we must start by looking at our own.

“’And why do you look at the speck that is in your bother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?’” Matthew 7:3

Stay near God's Word. Take care. Your servant & friend in Christ, Darlene
