Proverbs 6:16-19 These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:...
Jeremiah 9:23-24 Thus saith the LORD, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom... But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I am the LORD which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight saith the LORD.
The Lord Hates: |
The Lord Delights... in our understanding, knowledge and faith application of: |
1. A proud look, |
Phil 2:2-13 Fulfill ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than themselves. LOOK NOT every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:... |
2. a lying tongue, |
Eph 4:25-32 Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another... |
3. and hands that shed innocent blood, |
Acts 2:23 Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain: II Tim 3:12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. Phi 1:29 For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake; |
4. An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, |
Jeremiah 17:9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked... II Cor 10:13 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; |
5. feet that be swift in running to mischief, |
Eph 6:15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Rom 10:15 How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! |
6. A false witness that speaketh lies, |
Eph 4:14-16 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: From whom the whole body fitly joined together... |
7. and he that soweth discord among brethren. |
I Cor 1:10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. I Cor 12:12-27; Psa 133:1-3 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! |
