Do you Hate sinners and evil people????

Right and the tie has come. The earth becames brighter and we must change. We have to make a choice, change or leave.

U mean a "halo" on my head,its unimaginable..I tried several times being good to all.But gave up the same number of times.Its tough being good.I don't hate sinners and at the same time i don't love them,i try to avoid them.I FEEL THAT IT IS THE BEST WAY TO DEAL WITH THEM.I feel happy when i am "good" to such kind of people.Its gives some satisfaction sometimes."UNCONDITIONAL LOVE",its easy to forgive sinners than to spread unconditional love.I wish i could...

It depends on the sin committed and what evil that is done. What others see as sins I don't. And some evil is necessary. When people do wrong to me I do either seek revenge Or wish them ill for the rest of their days. I will never reach this higher level and I don't want to. I love the idea that I have the right to hate whomever I choose. If this right is taken away, then I will hate myself only. Or Hate everyone. I know myself that much. My hatred won't just disappear. That is why " Love Thy enemies" clause has kept me from being a Christian. If You forbid me from hating the correct target, Everyone will become a target. I would either become a bully Or worse a kind, well mannered serial killer. I choose to hate the correct target Thank you . So see me as low person or a sinner or even evil! I don't care it is safer this way for the innocent.

You're asking if we are vengeful. There is no profit in seeking revenge. It hurts the seeker more than the one targeted. Hate has the same results. I do believe in punishment from God or courts of law for sinful or lawless acts. That isn't hate. It's justice. He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD required of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? Michah 6:8 KJV A loving God is a just God as well as a merciful God. If we are to walk humble with God, we too must be just and merciful. A vengeful hateful person can be neither.

It depends on what sin they had committed. People are not perfect and they can commit mistakes. I can forgive those who committed minor sins but those who committed grave crime should be punished by the upper authority.

Hi bird, I am not a person who like to use the word "hate"...I think is a very very hard and emotional word.. I think it causes alot of negative actions and reaction.. However I have encountered poeple in my life that I can honestly dislike, for one reason or another..But "hate" no...I try very hard to rise above the negativity in my life...Its surely not easy at all and I don't always make it, ut I try... There have been situtations where I felt like I wanted to do some- thing to someone, but at the same token, it would only give me temporarily pleasure..It best to leave them and know that they will get their eventually... I don't think people who are evil and sinners will get far in this world without being punished by God...thats who will take care of them...its not up to me....

I used to be vengeful but getting older most things don't matter much anymore I just leave it to karma, what comes around goes around as what we do to others, we do to ourselves anyway some of them do it out of jealousy, some for money every time I let them have what/who they want, they lose them LOL I don't know if I can ever forgive these people, I know I can't like them and pretend nothing ever happened but at least I don't let the past rules my life

Others have the right to hate me. Those whom I have hurt me. I have been a bad person for ten years of my life. And I cannot tell it to my relatives and close friends even because they would judge and condemn me. Ah,Mr bird, you have no idea what a dirty person I have been. If you know, you may run away from me as would many good and righteous people. I have forgiven myself and so will the Lord, but other people will not.

bird, I'd be lying if I said I dont feel those things. But the intensity of such feelings has diminished considerably. All I can say is time is the best healer. We just have to let time do its job. Part of it is also maturity I suppose. Acceptance that I can't do much. May be that is why I dont feel the need. Or may be because I feel there is no punishment that I as a human can give which will serve them right. Whatever..I now offer it all to god. :)

HI bird: You are completely right and some people actually forget about this even if they call themselves Christians. Sometimes people feel so shocked about someone behaviour, like for example a murder that they hate the sinner and want to give them the same punishment and make him/ her suffer. However, that's not what my religious values tell me to do. It's sometimes difficult to fight these instinctive and violent feelings but we are rational animals after all and we can understand when something is right and wrong. If we give the same treatment we are being evil also. We have to give love to sinners not hate. We hate sin, not the sinner. ALVARO

I think this is a complicated issue. How much can you control your hatred, or other emotions? Some hatred is irrational, e.g. sexism and racism. Perhaps you hate somebody because of the way they dress or the type of music they play etc. Again, probably not rational. What if they dress in an overly revealing way or wear clothing that reflects beliefs you find objectionable (e.g. Nazi uniforms, shirts with sexist writing on them, something associated with a religion you don't agree with). Where do you draw the line? If you object to people being scantily clad, do you make everybody wear burkas? Just a minute, that's Islamic and therefore anti-Semitic and sexist and at least as bad as a Nazi uniform. Hmm this could be difficult. Sometimes you have a bad feeling about somebody because you're picking up something bad via an instinct, psychic power or spiritual gift so perhaps irrational feelings shouldn't be completely ignored. Another issue is if the problem is somebody's reputation. A reputation may not be deserved, either they've mended their ways or it wasn't true to start with. You shouldn't "sweat the small stuff" but what's small stuff? Sometimes small stuff adds up (e.g. if everybody steals a small item from your shop, you're going to go bankrupt). It might be the thin end of wedge - just have a little bit of Sharia law! You really should ask if the person's hurting you or other people by their actions. It's not always clear. Maybe you're being overly sensitive. Another factor is if it's just once or twice or does the person keep doing the thing you don't like. Perhaps you should ask them to stop. What if they won't? What if they can't? (Maybe they come to meetings in scruffy clothing because they have a dirty job and hurry to the meeting straight from work.) I think it's fair to expect people to treat you in certain ways (I suppose that can get unreasonable, if you expect them to give you money or tolerate your questionable behavior) but it's another matter if you expect them to treat other people in certain ways, when those people don't have a problem with it. If somebody has caused you serious problems, it's probably only just to take legal action against them or something. You might have to in order to get yourself back on your feet financially. What if they're also hurting other people? It also makes sense to remember what people have done wrong in the past and don't let them keep doing it, at least not to you. Believing people when they say they've changed is a good way to remain in an abusive relationship. OK, sometimes people really do change for the better.

As a Human being living in this world of ours. Situations got harder and harder every day. We tend to took it back what we supposed to be taken. But I haven't crossed my mind to plan for revenge coz. Though it hurts sometimes, you stumbled and fall to the ground but it doesn't connive to the situation you apt to.

In all honesty I am agnostic. But I feel the same way that we as a race need to rise above the feelings, but I fear that will never happen, because there will always be people out there that feel as if things will never change and will continue to be the same way. I personally feel like I want to get even with somebody who has done me wrong but in reality I probably never will although what makes me more curious is to know why they done me wrong and maybe I could come to a forgiving conclusion there, because most of the time as selfish as the reason maybe people are trying to look out for themselves because they have been hurt by others. As much as I may WANT to punish others in the same way they may have hurt me, I know that I can't hate or even be mad at somebody forever, as much as I may want to. I feel like I have reached that level but I guess it really depends on what you believe in.

generally for me i hate sinners and evil people especially when you get to know what bad things they did, but in other part i also estimate and try to understand why they did that thing. in the first place we are all sinners but they also ask forgiveness to God, sins are everywhere, it might be small or big but still it's a sin, all w have to do ask guidance to God and pray to be forgiven and avoid, prevent doing sins, it hard but it's true :)

Hate like unforgiveness hurts the hater more than the one the hatred is directed at and often leads to retaliation which never solves anything and could lead to feuds. I do believe that when someone commits an act that is detrimental to an individual or the community as a whole, punishment is necessary in order to teach the person that his/her behavior cannot be tolerated in polite society if that society hopes to live in peace and contentment. Punishment, when it's administered properly, is not an act of hatred, but an act of teaching. Without punishment for bad behavior, what is being taught is that it's all right to behave badly.

At first yes,but I come to realize that we are all sinners as a human being.Only our Lord Jesus Christ did not commit sin.That is why we don't have the right to hate sinners because all of us are sinners.What we need to do is to advice and helping each other,to follow and obey the laws Of God.No to revenge,instead show them that you are concern for their good and advice not to do evil.

I think it is human nature to hat sinners and evil people. To get back at others means we are like them, and in most cases, we are. To learn from God is to embrace the sinner, but hate sin and evil. It is indeed a tall order to love unconditionally. We even have problems with those we love and those who love us, let alone those who do us wrong. So have we reach there? I hope we can all say that we are on our way...to become more like Him.

"We must let go of all hate and revenge......('till the end of your post)" --Sometimes the best way to love people who are outlaws, sinners, etc. is to make them face fair-dealing, or to hold them back from doing immoralities. Nevertheless, these curative measures should be done with a loving heart and with the other person's wellbeing topmost in mind.
