Psalm 19:14 Hebrew lesson page (pdf)<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n <\/p>\n
Every day we make decisions regarding good and evil, and therefore every day we are deciding (i.e., proclaiming, teaching, and attesting) our faith to others. The issue is not whether we love or whether we hate, but what we love and what we hate….<\/p>\n
Followers of Yeshua must love the truth and abhor the lie. Tolerating sin in a world ripe for judgment is a tacit form of “collaboration” with the enemy… Indeed, the only thing regarded as intolerable in the devil’s world is the objection that people have a supposed “liberty” to sin. But the LORD is clear on this point: those who call evil good and good evil are doomed. Therefore we are enjoined: \u201cO you who love the LORD, hate evil\u201d (Psalm 97:10). Yes, hate what is evil and love what is good (Amos 5:15). The connection between loving God and hating evil is repeated in the New Testament: \u201cLet your love be genuine (\u1f00\u03bd\u03c5\u03c0\u1f79\u03ba\u03c1\u03b9\u03c4\u03bf\u03c2, without a \u201cmask\u201d put on): abhor what is evil; cling to what is good (Rom. 12:9). If we truly love the LORD, let us walk in the awe of His great Name by hating what is evil. “God’s firm foundation stands, bearing this seal: “The Lord knows those who are his,” and, “Let everyone who names the name of the Lord depart from iniquity” (2 Tim. 2:19).<\/p>\n

Every one of us is a teacher of sorts, proclaiming through our personal choices what we believe to be true. \u00a0False teachers are those whose choices \u201cteach\u201d that there is no God, no eternal life, no meaning to life, and ultimately, no real hope… It cannot be any other way, for we all teach by our choices; we communicate by our assumptions of what we regard is of \u201cultimate concern.\u201d Postmodern philosophy never answered any of the haunting existential questions of life, such as: What is reality? Why is there something rather than nothing? What is the purpose of life? What happens when we die? Who am I? Do moral choices matter? and so on, but instead merely reinterpreted the hunger for meaning to be about power and control… Nonsense! People may evade the great questions of life by pretending they are unknowable, but Scripture attests that all people are created in God\u2019s image and are intuitively aware of God\u2019s reality and power: \u201cFor His invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made; so they are without excuse\u201d (Rom. 1:20). \u00a0We have a sacred duty to honor God\u2019s truth and that implies we bear a sacred animosity toward lies and false teaching. \u201cDo not be deceived: associating with false teaching corrupts good character\u201d (1 Cor. 15:33). We hate sin because it wounds and kills the soul. Think straight; awaken to the holiness of life; turn away from vain thoughts and lies; embrace the truth of God’s salvation.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/hebrew4christians.com\/training\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/psalm19-14-analysis.gif?resize=581%2C591&ssl=1\")
