SEVEN THINGS GOD HATES: #7 – DISUNITY IN THE REMNANT
Tuesday, February 25th, 2014
There are more divisions in the western world over the Gospel of Jesus Christ than there are plays in the Seattle Seahawks offensive playbook. In fact, the only thing most real Christians ever agree on is that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, Who was born as a baby, nailed to a Cross and everyone (except some liberal dying mainline denominations) believes He rose from the dead, on Resurrection Sunday.So why is discord sown among the brethren – something which the Lord hates, by the way? The answer can be found in human nature. The seeds of discord were being sowed, believe it or not, while Jesus was still alive!Here were the greatest men who ever lived, after the LORD Himself of course, yet some of them were debating who would be the greatest (see Luke 9:46-47 “46An argument started among them as to which of them might be the greatest. 47But Jesus, knowing what they were thinking in their heart, took a child and stood him by His side)
SEVEN THINGS GOD HATES: #6 – A FALSE WITNESS

Can God be any clearer? He put the following in the 9th Commandment in Exodus 20:16 “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor”, then He emphasizes that Law in the list of Seven Things He hates!
Why is this? Well, because God is Truth, period. It is written “I am the Way, the Truth and the Life”. It is also written “the Father is looking for worshippers….who will worship in SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH”! Then twice in three chapters, the Lord Jesus mentioned the Spirit of God – Holy Spirit – and called Him “the Spirit of Truth” – John 14:17 and John 16:13.
