There are six things that the LORD hates, seven that are an abomination to him:
- Haughty eyes,
- A lying tongue,
- Hands that shed innocent blood,
- A heart that devises wicked plans,
- Feet that make haste to run to evil,
- A false witness who breathes out lies,
- One who sows discord among brothers.
Isaiah 61:8a
"...in that they went to burn incense, [and] to serve other gods, whom they knew not, [neither] they, ye, nor your fathers.
Howbeit I sent unto you all my servants the prophets, rising early and
sending [them], saying, Oh, do not this abominable thing that I hate."
Jeremiah 44:3,4
Neither shalt thou set thee up [any] image; which the LORD thy God hates.
Deuteronomy 6:22
I hate (hypocrisy), I despise your feast days, and I will not smell in your solemn assemblies. Though ye offer me burnt offerings and your meat offerings, I will not
accept [them]: neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat
beasts.
Amos 5:21,22
And let none of you imagine evil in your hearts against his neighbor;
and love no false oath: for all these [are things] that I hate, saith
the LORD.
Zechariah 8:17
The LORD tries the righteous: but the wicked and him that loves violence his soul hates.
Psalm 11:5
For the LORD, the God of Israel, saith that he hates putting away (divorce):
Malachi 2:16
But this you have, that you hate the deeds of the Nicolaitans*, which I also hate.
Revelation 2:6
*A sect that taught sexual immorality and pagan practices could be a part of Christian worship. It began as a small sect and in the time of Constantine became the dominant form of Christendom. True Christianity remains the practice of a relatively small number of souls.
This sowing of discord among the brethren of the Lord is an abomination to Him.
