Nowhere does it say God 'hates' sinners. If that were so, we would not all have the gift of repentance.
But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’ For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners. Matthew 9:13
Jesus sacrifice would not happen if God 'hated' sinners.
This is what you must FIRST understand. The churches have their places in the book of LIFE. There are many nominations, which are all man made and not of God, and ALL will teach for a prey to play their roles in the larger life.
When a child is old enough and can read and write, the parents will send their child to a school of their nomination, or else the church will find a way to catch that child for a prey.They will indoctrinate that child for many years in a row. If you tell a lie consistently for a prolonged period of time, it will be believed.
Such children are you and I and the masses. Now here is the catch, if I preach a different Gospel to you, you will instantly reject my doctrine, because your doctrine has been embedded in your brain and believe system, for almost your whole live, whereas I can't compare my authority with that of your church. Our parents didn't know what was going on and neither do or did we. It is therefore logical that we believe too have the truth and will defend our false believes and those who have taught us.
Here is what the Holy Bible says: (Isaiah 28:9) Whom shall h
He teach knowledge and whom shall He make to understand doctrine? Them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breast. The next verse contains the key, how we must read the bible for the complete understanding.
Clearly, the true Gospel has not been told in the earth to the masses, why I can't explain further.
But if you want to be weaned from the milk meaning be reborn again AND FINALLY ENTER INTO LIFE, then you must forget what you have learned, PUT ASIDE YOUR RELIGIOUS BELIEVE SYSTEM, and your first question must be, as you would do, with any other book...
WHAT IS THE THEME OR TOPIC OF THE HOLY BIBLE? WHAT IS IT REALLY ABOUT???
{John 8:32} AND YE SHALL KNOW THE TRUTH AND THE TRUTH SHALL MAKE YOU FREE (THIS IS CHRIST SPEAKING).
