Bible Question:
Read Psa 139:17-22 for context. Are we to actually hate certain people at certain times, especially if they are hating the Lord and rising up against Him? Steve |
Bible Answer: Steve- I think it has something to do with the time frame. Prior to Jesus, there were laws to live by, and I think that keeping the law was what was important. Now, the emphasis is on the heart. Not only do you not murder, but you do not hate or think about it. The Mosaic law was impossible to keep, the New Law is even more impossible, except for the grace of God and the help of the Holy Spirit. Deb |
