And yes, love and hate are opposites, but they’re not always incompatible. We know this because His word instructs us in this and His word is absolutely reliable. Of course it’s true that God is love (1 John 4:8), but God hates evil. After all, God is love and love is the opposite of hate, right? They’re incompatible, aren’t they?

Proverbs 6:16-19īelieve me, I know there are people who are going to be bothered by the idea that God could hate. There are six things that the Lord hates, seven that are an abomination to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil, a false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers.
