ok ...first of all you have to hate your father and mother, and wife and children, and brethren and sisters, yea, and your own life ...Luke 14:26
Hahaha. This isn't the right way to establishing a covenant with Jesus Christ. Perhaps that scripture by the Lord isn't harsh as it appears.
Remember that what you love most, you give attention to more than any other thing else and the commandment by the Lord still remains "love God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength." And when you have done this, there won't be any thing to take the place of God in your heart and that doesn't mean you should hate your fellow human being because it is written; "love your neighbor as yourself." So we still need to love people.
Moreover, hating yourself is denying self or fleshly desire that would contend with the things of the Spirit of God because a canal man cannot please God according to the scriptures.
Thank you, and God bless you!
