Bible Question: I have heard God hates sin, but loves the sinner. Is this a quote from the Bible or people's feelings about what God intends? |
Bible Answer: We have to emphasize the term "sinner" all people had committed sin althought there are "perfect" mentioned in the bible: Ge 6:9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God. We all sinned because of Adam: 1Co 15:22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. but because of Jesus Christ we shall "all" be made alive. When its mentioned "all" meaning we are all consider sinners but God love us that is why He sent Jesus Christ to save us. (John 3:16) But if you continue denying Him He said He will deny you to His Father. It is right God hates sin, but love us as a sinner if we ready to accept Jesus, we can receive His forgiveness. It is biblical truth. God bless, Johnny |
