Abominations | Proverbs 6:16-19

If something is an abomination, that means it’s a hateful, very bad thing. If we say that we hate something, that doesn’t really mean a whole lot. If Douglas says that he hates eggplant, that doesn’t mean that eggplants are actually bad, he just doesn’t like them. Douglas is just Douglas and you are just you. But if God hates something, that is an incredibly big deal. Our preferences don’t define right and wrong, but God’s do. For Christians, there really should be no debate, if God says that something is an abomination, that thing is not a good thing. Some of the sins that God calls an abomination are things that many of us don’t struggle with, but that is not at all an excuse to start mistreating people because of their sin. We need to work on our own sinfulness instead of attacking others for theirs. Most of what the Bible calls abominable are sins that we all struggle with. Let’s do our best to align our lives to what God says is good and put behind us what God says is bad.Follow this link to learn how you can download this video and the family time devotional that goes with it: https://douglastalks.com/abominations/Related Verses:Proverbs 6 16-19 - Seven things God hatesMatthew 7 3-5 - Deal with your own sinRomans 2 1 - We are no better than anyone elseNumbers 23 19 - God doesn’t change His mindFamily Time Questions:If you do what God hates, does God hate you?How has God proven that He loves you and doesn’t hate you?Can something be good if God hates it?Why should we listen to what God says?Family Time Prayer:"Dear God, thank You for Your love for us.
