21. Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?22. I hate them with a perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.23. Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:24. And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. Psalm 139:21-24 God has enemiesthose who are haters of His Word, Laws, Gospel, His people. These are the wicked of the world, to hate them with a perfect hatred is to hate their works and deeds, for the persons, we must love, and pray for their salvation, for this is Christ's word in the Gospel. God is love, but that love is not a blanket covering for those who will not submit to the King, who gave His life to defeat sin. The godly person shall seek Christ, shall seek the Spirit, to renew the heart and mind. Removing every evil way, being covered in Christ's Righteousness, for He took our punishment, for sin. Christ the King of kings, leading us into eternal life. Amen.
