Why does He not just get tired of the sinfulness of man and just wipe us out?
What does He like?
What does He hate?
And if He does hate things, how can it be that a loving God could hate? Well the answer to that is because of God's very nature. Not only is He loving but He is also holy and just. So, if we do things, that are against his Holy nature He cannot be happy with it.
It has been said:
``These six things doth the Lord hate; yea, seven are an abomination unto him:
A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood.
A heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.
He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the Lord.
Divers weights, and divers measures, both of them are alike abominations to the Lord."
Ask the Lord to help you follow Jesus and do what God likes rather than what He hates.
