You who love the Lord, hate evil! He protects the lives of his godly people and rescues them from the power of the wicked. --- Psalm 97:10 NLT A sincere purpose to please God will result in an alignment of your desires with God’s desires. You will love what God loves and hate what God hates. If you love the Lord, you will hate evil. If you do not despise the actions of people who take advantage of others, if you admire people who only look out for themselves, or if you envy those who get ahead using any means to accomplish their ends, then your primary desire in life is not to please God. Learn to love God’s ways and hate evil in every form---not only the obvious sins but also the socially acceptable ones. --- Life Application Study Bible notes
