God Hates

Proverbs 6:16-19 English Standard Version

16  There are six things that the Lord hates, seven that are an abomination to him:
17 haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
18 a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil,
19 a false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers.

Because we love the Lord then it seems right to avoid doing things He hates.

Proverbs 11:1 A false balance is an abomination to the Lord, but a just weight is his delight.

Perhaps a false balance falls under the title of a lie.

Israel has 613 laws to keep. It seems like avoiding those 7 in Proverbs 6 would be easier to keep than all 613.

That might be true but Jesus boils it all down to one commandment. Love one another.

How are we doing?
