There are six things the Lord hates,

seven that are detestable to him:

haughty eyes,

a lying tongue,

hands that shed innocent blood,

a heart that devises 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 community.

Proverbs 6:16-19

KJV

¹⁶These six things doth the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:

¹⁷A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed blood,

¹⁸An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,

¹⁹A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

I have not committed murder, I don't do evil, I don't spread rumors if I can help it, I don't hold grudges/feel jealousy, and I try really hard not to lie. I think God will forgive me, in the end.

And one sin he won't forgive is the one committed with the thought you can always be forgiven for it.

Although I don't believe in this "Lord", they are basic human laws that all should live by.

Pretty much. The bible seems to think that anything that makes you human is unacceptable.

God hates killing, schemes, evil, lies, conflict and pride. Did you not read the scripture?

reply
Doreen to Kyra 2012/06/06 02:24:34

I realize what the scripture says but it amazes me when people use the word hate when they describe something to do with their Lord.

reply
Kyra to Doreen 2012/06/06 20:21:20 (edited)

Do you think it sounds better to say that Got LOVES killing, schemes, evil, lies, conflict and pride. You cannot have love when those exist.

These seem like easy things to NOT do, even if you are not a believer.

reply
BHGOzzy to Kyra 2012/06/06 05:16:52

True enough, but see, I keep getting told that I'm hated by God because I don't accept Jesus and don't believe in God, and DO accept Evolution and Science.

Given that I'm told this so very often I'd have to assume, based on the wording, that God hates me because I'm a living human being who doesn't blindly believe everything a priest tells him.

Well God loves you, and anyone who says different is not a true Christian and does not even know who Jesus was or why He came.
We do not need priest.... we need God.

BHGOzzy to Kyra 2012/06/06 20:27:11

Thanks. Pretty clear you don't need that book of horrors to be a good person... and you're probably better off NOT using that book to prop up your morals, given the things declared moral within it, which includes: Incest, rape, genocide, mind control, subjugation of women, murder... and a whole host of other crimes, so long as YHWH commands it. (Who, by the way, is an old Cannanite war god originally).
