Proverbs 8:13 ” To fear the Lord is to hate evil; I hate pride and arrogance, evil behavior and perverse speech.”

What does God hate?  The short list is right here in this proverb.  God tells us over and over again not to have a relationship with any kind of unethical or immoral activity.  But our pride and arrogance makes us think we know more than Him, so off we go, dabbling in things that confuse and slowly draw us in.  And before you know it, we’re snared by the grip of sin.  But even then, our willful and obstinate nature refuses to accept responsibility  and turn away from the mess we’ve gotten ourselves into.  Our corrupt human nature is constantly pulling us away from what is right and good…when God is telling us to shun evil and put away all our wicked ways.
