Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen!

 

Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen.

~1 John 4:20

Today we see a lot of people who say they are Christians, but do not love. They spew and show a lot of hate. We live in a very divided country and world today. The hate and division is very apparent and quite scary actually.  We see a lot of hate, negativity, and derangement from some people. It sometimes seems like the hate is so strong and even the media, news, and powers that be overlook or accept it because they think hating certain people is okay to do, they seem complicit. All hate is wrong, all hate directed toward any one person or group is wrong. Hate is not acceptable. God knows! There is a lot of hypocrisy today, a lot of liars. Hate is not right, none of it. We must love others, all people. Even if we are different or do not agree with them. Hate is hate and it is a very dangerous way to live. Today many people live with hate. They live in this world of sin, being slaves for Satan, living for things of this world, one is that of hate. It is not from God. We cannot settle or live for things of this world, material goods, carnal desires, money, power, things on this planet. We need to live in Spirit, to live with Christ in us, we need to live in love! Loving God and loving all our brothers and sisters alike. So when someone hates anyone, they do not love, they do not know God, they are a liar. All hate is wrong! God is love!
