Do you believe that those who ultimately hate Jesus go to heaven or do you believe they go to hell?
“
Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations;
and
repayeth them that hate him to their face, to destroy them: he will not be slack to him that hateth him, he will repay him to his face.”
Deuteronomy 7:9-10 KJV
The term to hate God or to love God biblically is tied to the persons actions whether obedient or sinful .
“He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world? Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.”
John 14:21-24 KJV
“By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments. For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.”
1 John 5:2-4 KJV
We’ve all become sinners so Christ offers
repentance and remission of sins we need to repent and turn to God in truth before it’s too late
“
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but
is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
2 Peter 3:9KJV
Hes calling sinners to repent before it’s too late
“I came not
to call the righteous, but
sinners to repentance.”
Luke 5:32 KJV
because they’re going to perish like all sinners
“I tell you, Nay: but,
except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.”
Luke 13:3 KJV
Since Jesus ascended it became about
repentance and remission of sins in his name and letting the gospel teach us the ways of God in truth and spirit.
We think of love and hate as an emotion but God sees it as more .
