An important facet of the Gospel is that Christ came to save us from sin. How can I possibly love a sinner but not hate the fact they are bound by sin? Like a cancer, sin needs to be dealt with. 'How about you hate your own sin' sounds like the disciple could not care less about what binds and weighs down the unsaved or their fellow Christian.

Spots here remind me of spots of leprosy which throughout the Word consistently represents sin. The command to be unspotted would certainly cause me to think that I would hate to develop spots. It is written in James 1:27, 'Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.' Many denominations and other religious groups do well with visitation, but are definitely defiled. For one thing, it neglects the fact seen through much of Holy Scripture that the world system can have an adverse effect upon the true Christian. This is in direct conflict to a number of Biblical points. I do not have time to hate your sin since there are too many of you.”

Also, since the words I am going to somewhat quote are part of a philosophy circulating within “Christendom”, do not assume only one person said it.Įssentially the first three lines read something like, “You have heard it said, ‘love the sinner but hate the sin.’ How about you just hate your own sin. I came across something and I am going to change the words slightly to avoid brother - sister bashing (just in case they actually are Christians). It is very sad to say that sometimes some Christians, especially well-known Christians (or the well-known that claim to be Christian), cave-in to what the world says, ignoring the whole counsel of the Holy Bible. As it was in the days of the early church, in the times of the Apostles, and just afterwards, the force of the world to discredit the Word of God and encourage disciples to accept worldly standards is a force to be reckoned with, and, in my opinion is even stronger in our times.

I trust every true disciple realizes the world system is really pushing hard to make us fit into their mold. Not only is it not logical, it is not Biblically sound. The pseudo-pious will often show how “godly” they are by publicly proclaiming they have the love of God and there is no room for hatred in them, including hating the sins of others, Just think that one out for a moment.
