If you mean God, not only does he not hate, he cannot hate in that sense. He does however hate a proud look, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, an 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 according to Proverbs 6:16-19. He cannot hate his children but he can dislike some things, All of us are not his children anyway if we do not obey his commandments. We are either of God or of the devil, whomever we obey that is to whom we belong (Romans 6). We must live a sin free life in order to be a true child of God. Consider salvation for your soul God loves you!

Wait for me God asks, For this day I rise up to the prey;
For my determination is to gather all the nations that I may assemble the kingdoms,
To pour upon them my indignation,
Even all my fierce anger, for all the earth will be devoured with
fire of My jealousy.
For then I shall turn the peoples a pure language that they may all call upon my name.
I am the lord and there is none else. I created the earth to be inhabited. I established it. I did not create it for waste.
I have not spoken in secret, in a place of the land in darkness.
I said not unto the seed of Jacob "Seek ye Me in vain';
I the Lord speak righteousness, I declare thing that are right.
Assemble yourselves and come , draw near together you that escaped of the nations. They that carry the wood or metal that's shaped to represent their graven image have no knowledge. They pray to a god that cannot save. Isaiah 45:11

Probably the most expressed thought of God is:
..... and I will be their God.
It is in the scriptures eleven times.
However there is always something that goes in the dots before the 'and'.
Example I:
Jer 31:33
But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
In order for them to be his people, they have to have the law of God written in the hearts.
Example II:
Eze 37:23
Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will save them out of all their dwellingplaces, wherein they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God.
They have to give up their evil ways.
There is another clarification having to do with who they were:
Example III:
Ex 29:45
And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will be their God.
In 1John 1:5-7 it says:
5 ¶ This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
Sounds conditional, doesn't it.

God doesn't hate anyone. He love us and created us. If he hated us he could just poof us into nothingness.
The problem is that he is also a just god who hates sin. (He did make the world so i would think he's entitled to make the rules) Our sin gets in the way of our relationship with god. God can't be with sin. So, God created a way to get that sin out of the way. He sent his son Jesus to die for our sins. In this way, he allows those who believe to join him in heaven. Those who don't accept him are unable to join him because they still have sin. It's not that God doesn't love them, He is just unable to help them because he has already paid for their sins, but they chose not to accept his forgiveness and repent.

Yet another flaw of the Bible. God is our father and loves all of us. Therefore, he cannot cast any of us into Hell (in the Judeo-Christian sense, that is). But, if we cannot go to Hell, we have no reason not to commit sin. If we commit sin freely and without consequence without punishment or retaliation, how does God exist? It's one of those endless loopholes that the Bible throws at you, trying to make you be another mindless sheep... Crap on that, man.

God does not hate His children, but He does hate the sin. Thats why we have Jesus Christ He saved us from our sins.

How does he hate? I think people hate but not our Father. He hates things we do but not us by my understanding. Consequences laid out and enforced does not mean hate. Parents would understand that.

He hurts the ones that he loves most because life is all about endurance.

The only thing God hates is sin.
