Today's verse is Leviticus 19:17
Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him
In this verse we have a contrast, and if you can see it, a definition for Hate. Consider carefully, what is the purpose of rebuke? Is it not so that the offender may change his ways? If we see our neighbor sin, or perceive our neighbor is about to sin, it is a hateful thing to allow them to continue upon their destructive path. That is what God says. But today, we are told that we hate our neighbor if we do not condone what they are doing. Even worse tell them they are wrong! So, who do you Fear? Do you fear God? Or do you fear what man might do to you? Do you agree to God’s definition (who by definition is alway right,) or do you surrender to peer pressure, and suffer with them God’s wrath? Selah [Choose wisely.] Amen.
To God be the Glory
