Could Jesus hate?

Do you hate your family? Do you hate yourself? You better not love them!!
Luk 14:26 "If anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple.

 

Scripture?

Scripture?

Did Christ hate the Nicolatians...or their deeds?

Satan's temptations on the mount were fake then I guess?

Are you separating Jesus' humanity? He could have slept with anyone while on earth, could He not?

Easy. Can God sin?

Obviously more righteous than you do...

Thanks for that useful information...I never knew that

Absolutely. The only definition you give for "hate"? No.

You allow God only one meaning of the word hate...and you have the nerve to say MY doctrine limits HIm? Yeah, whatever...

 

Don't tell jaruthur or johnp that. It has to only mean the witholding of love...

 

Is the red type my words?

 

According to who? Romans 9-11 is dealing with Israel.

Oh really? Why did God continue to bless Esau?

According to you and reformed theology in general. According to Scriptural context you are wrong.

That is nonsense, because it would never mean that. God sovereignly chose the decendants of Jacob over the decendants of Esau. He loved and showed special favor to the line of Jacob. It doesn't mean the opposite is true with Esau...that He witheld love from him.

 

Here I agree with Rippon *gasp*

Indifference is not the opposite of love. I'm indifferent to little Johnny who lives on the other side of the world, but I don't hate him.

 

I'm sorry, that Scripture doesn't say God hates the devil.

Hating deeds and hating the person committing the deeds are totally unrelated. I can hate something my son does without hating him.

You deny Scripture?
Mat 4:1 Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
Mar 1:13 And he was in the wilderness forty days, being tempted by Satan. And he was with the wild animals, and the angels were ministering to him.
Luk 4:2 for forty days, being tempted by the devil. And he ate nothing during those days. And when they were ended, he was hungry.

Who said anything about "lady gods"? Was Christ human or not? Do humans have sex? You say it's not worth a response...is that because you are gnostic?

I'm amazed you believe the Bible was originally written in english.

The phrase "yeah, whatever" is a strawman? You're losing it...

 

Can you show me where Scipture undoubtedly states He hates the devil? It must be found in Opinions 1:1

 

Irrrelevant. This topic is being discussed currently on "a comparison" thread. Feel free to join that.

I never said God doesn't hate. I believe God hates sin. I also believe God sovereignly chooses one individual over another, one nation over another, and even loves some more than others...all proper definitions of sane and miseo.

I see the cherry picking of verses begins...

According to how you are using this verse, God hates everyone. Great.

Irrelevant to the topic. Nothing to do with hate.

I provided a link to another thread this was being discussed on. I see you didn't open it. Helen explained it very well. She stated...
"Now let's go to the verses in Malachi which Paul refers to in Romans:

An oracle: The word of the Lord to Israel through Malachi.
"I have loved you," says the Lord.
"But you ask, 'How have you loved us?'
"Was not Esau Jacob's brother?" the Lord says. "Yet I have loved Jacob, but Esau I have hated, and I have turned his mountains into a wasteland and left his inheritance to the desert jackals."
Edom may say, "though we have been crushed, we will rebuild the ruins."
But this is what the Lord Almighty says:
"They may build, but I will demolish. They will be called the Wicked Land, a people always under the wrath of the Lord. You will see it with your own eyes and say, 'Great is the Lord -- even beyond the borders of Israel!'

Again, two nations are being talked about. And this is what Paul is referring to in Romans. God did not choose to hate the person Esau before his birth. That is NOWHERE indicated in the Bible. There is nothing that shows that after Jacob returned from Laban with his wives and children that Esau was anything but a brother to him. Together they buried their father. In fact, when the land became insufficient for their combined vast flocks, it was Esau who had the grace to move away instead of fighting for 'his' land (Genesis 36:6-8). For those who are not aware, Genesis 36:1 identified Esau as Edom.

In short, again, Bible explains Bible.

A hearty Amen!

You have a lot of nerve talking about strawmen...

You are denying one funtionality of humanity that Christ possessed. Are you saying physically, Christ was not wired like other human beings? Was He not 100% man? I also never state He DID anything, so your davinci codes comments are unwarranted. He COULD have...He was still sovereign, no?

Clearly you don't, or you would not deny Christ's full humanity. Don't talk down to me, please. If you can't keep this civil by debating Scripture, pulling the "I'm superior in knowledge" tactic is weak.

Wow, you still continue to hold onto one meaning...the one you like. Did you fail to see "odious" in there, James?
o·di·ous

[SIZE=-1]ADJECTIVE: [/SIZE]

Arousing or meriting strong dislike, aversion, or intense displeasure.

Why not...you have plenty in you

Does it really make a difference? What if all spanish translations translate it something different? Does the english mean it's superior? This is a strawman in itself!

I'm sure you have plenty left over...can I borrow some?

Funny, I was about to ask you the same thing!Do you hate your family James? Your father and mother...wife? Holding to your narrow reformed view of a single word, and not the context of where that word fits, you better!
