The Most High’s Hatred for Sinners
“For my thoughts [are] not your thoughts, neither [are] your ways my ways, saith the lord. For [as] the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.” Isaiah 55:8-9
The Lord’s thoughts are beyond our understanding and it’s impossible for man’s simple mind to comprehend his ways. We have to thoroughly examine the scriptures as they are supposed to be read, precept upon precept, line upon line (Isaiah 28:10), to get a full understanding on such a complex topic such as this. Because many people have been manipulated by religion into believing that God is an all loving and all-accepting power even of those whom refuse to stop sinning, it is hard for those to understand the truth that the Most High actually HATES not only the sin itself but the sinner also.
“Seek ye out of the book of the lord, and read: no one of these shall fail, none shall want her mate: for my mouth it hath commanded, and his spirit it hath gathered them.” Isaiah 34:16
To understand the ways of the Most High, we must seek His Word daily to obtain the knowledge that will give us strength to combat false teachings. None of the prophecies of the Bible have failed to come to pass such as the children of Israel retuning to captivity by way of cargo slave ships (Deuteronomy 28:68) or being scattered with a whirlwind among all nations (Zechariah 7:14).
King Solomon warned us about the unending making of many books (Ecclesiastes 12:12) containing lies and doctrines which biblical scholars, pastors, ministers and spiritualist, who claim to have the knowledge of the holy scriptures, will use to substantiate their heresies (false teachings) and keep the veil over our eyes.
Christians firmly believe that the Most High does not consider them sinners. Christians believe that the Most High only has a strong dislike for their sinful acts and so long as they say “I’m sorry” or “He knows my heart,” that the Lord will forgive them on the spot. They believe going to church once a week and not sinning on that day will absolve them of their sins.
The heart [is] deceitful above all [things], and desperately wicked: who can know it? Jeremiah 17:9
Religion has destroyed our brothers and sisters so much to the point that they believe anything they do, the Most High will accept their life style even if a sister is a stripper or an adult film star committing adultery and fornication or a brother who is a drug dealer murdering his people spiritually and physically and says “this is how I make my living, the Lord knows my heart.” You’re wrong and you have no real love for YHWH or for yourself. Christ explains in the book of Matthew what defiles a man:
“But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man. [19] for out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies: [20] these are [the things] which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man.” Matthew 15:18-20
It is now clear why a man or woman’s heart (mind) is his or her own destruction and why it is important that it be corrected! Christian preachers will teach their congregation that “God don’t hate the sinner, he hates the sins!” WRONG! But let’s prove it out the holy scriptures if the LORD hates sin or the sinners. The book of Psalms chapter 5 reads:
“The heart is deceitfully above all things.” Jeremiah 17:9
“The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.” Psalms 5:5
The Lord clearly states that the foolish (boastful ones or lacking sense) will not stand before him and HATES all workers (people) of iniquity (sin, wickedness). But you have to know what makes you a sinner. In
1 John 3:4 states that “sin is a transgression of the law.”
“Know ye not brethren that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of god.” 1 Corinthians 6:9
“God judgeth the righteous, and god is angry [with the wicked] every day.” Psalms 7:11
“Let the sinners be consumed out of the earth, and let the wicked be no more. Bless thou the lord, o my soul. Praise ye the lord.” Psalms 104:35
“and the destruction of the transgressors and of the sinners [shall be] together, and they that forsake the lord shall be consumed.” Isaiah 1:28
“all the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, which say, the evil shall not overtake nor prevent” Amos 9:10
“all unrighteousness is sin...” 1 John 5:17
“my right hand shall not spare the sinners, and my sword shall not cease over them that shed innocent blood upon the earth. (23) the fire is gone forth from his wrath, and hath consumed the foundations of the earth, and the sinners, like the straw that is kindled. (24) woe to them that sin, and keep not my commandments! Saith the lord.”
2 Esdras 15:22-24 [Apocrypha]
“and say not his mercy is great; he will be pacified for the multitude of my sins: for mercy and wrath come from him, and his indignation resteth upon sinners.” Ecclesiasticus 5:6 [Apocrypha]
Now those are just a few scriptures to show you how the Most High feels about sinners. As you continue your journey reading the bible you will see that the Lord doesn’t change his judgment towards those who sin against him and no one is exempt from his wrath.
There are countless examples in the bible that proves God is loving and merciful.
“Know therefore that the lord thy god, he [is] god, the faithful god, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations;” Deuteronomy 7:9
“he that loveth not knoweth not god; for god is love.” 1 John 4:8
“but thou, o lord, [art] a god full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth.”
Psalms 86:15
Matthew 19:17: “...there is none good but one, that is, god...”
Even Christ teaches us the need and importance of our love and due respect towards the Most High. Just as much as the Most High can love and pour out his blessings upon us, he can also hate and curse us. Read about the Most High’s blessings in Deuteronomy Chapter 28 verses 1-14 and about the curses in verses 15-68.
