Note: When speaking of the “world” I am referring to the worldwide system of beliefs that rejects God’s Love, His Eternal Commandments and Law and The Leading of The HOLY SPIRIT. I am referring to the earthly realm where Satan is god and ruler.
1 John 2:15-16 (CEB)
15 Don’t love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in them. 16 Everything that is in the world—the craving for whatever the body feels, the craving for whatever the eyes see and the arrogant pride in one’s possessions—is not of the Father but is of the world.
1 John 2:15-16 (ESV)
15 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride of life—is not from the Father but is from the world.
In my brief 57 years on earth, I have experienced joys and pains of various kinds, some too personal to mention here. But through them all, there was always GOD.
I have had many more failures than success but through them all, there was always God.
I have experienced betrayals and treachery by former spouses, siblings, family members, Pastors, ministers, churches and former associates but through them all, there was GOD.
I have had a childhood illness that has evolved into a lifelong debilitating disease. But through it all there is GOD.
I have had a lucrative career snatched away from me by those whom I trusted and I have been cast into relative destitution and want. But through it all, there is GOD.
I have learned that GOD was always there Keeping me and preserving me for such a time as this. And GOD is keeping me even now.
GOD IS KEEPING ME through the daily physical pains and emotional challenges.
As a matter of fact, GOD is the only constant in my life. God is the only truly faithful ONE in my life. YHVH is the only ONE who knows how to love me and He loves me to life eternal.
If it had not been for the LORD on my side, I would have been dead and damned a long time ago.
The world and her systems of religions and counterfeit faith, as well as her system of pseudo-morality and injustice, have shown themselves hostile toward me and my divine calling. On several occasions and even now, the world and her children and ministers stand against me as I stand for the TRUTH of YHVH and CHRIST.
John 15:19 records the LORD as saying:
“And if you had been from the world, the world would have loved its own; but you are not from the world, but I have chosen you from the world; because of this the world hates you.”
When I was boy, I thought like a boy and I acted like a boy and did boyish things but now that I am a man; now that the LORD has pulled me out of the deception of the world and sanctified me unto himself, I have put away childish things, fairytales and fables, idol toys and meaningless distractions, Easter bunnies, Santa Clause and Halloween and things that blaspheme the name of GOD.
I finally realize that the world and her things and her systems of religions and pseudo-Christianity are meant to draw us away from the only TRUE GOD and source of authentic Salvation – Christ Yeshua. I realize now more than ever, that the world and her god are trying to deceive us and damn us and defile us and utterly destroy us and make us a child of hell.
The world has taught us to love and pursue money and that money is the proof of blessings and success. Even the false prophets teach the pursuit of money through demonic seed faith doctrines. They make acquiring worldly wealth the goal of religion. But this is contrary to GOD’S COMMANDMENTS and LAW and it leads to many kinds of sins and transgression and personal sufferings.
Hebrews 13:5
Let not your mind love money, but let whatever you have suffice for you, for THE LORD YHVH has said, “I shall not forsake you, neither shall I let go of your hand.”1 Timothy 6:10
For the love of money is a root of all the evils; because of this craving, some people have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves to the heart with many pains.
As I stated earlier, GOD has been constant in my life and He is consistently keeping me through all I have been through and through all I am going through now. And God has taught me not to trust in the world’s money or in those who hold the world’s money in high esteem. Money and the world are not my friends.
The LORD has said it and the world has shown that it is God’s enemy. The world has also proven that it is my constant antagonist, thief and murderer. Therefore, because I love YHVH, I HATE the world with a perfect hatred.
Psalm 139:21-24
21 Do I not hate those who hate you, O Lord?
And do I not loathe those who rise up against you?
22 I hate them with complete hatred;
I count them my enemies.23 Search me, O God, and know my heart!
Try me and know my thoughts!
24 And see if there be any grievous way in me,
and lead me in the way everlasting!
I used to want a nice spacious home with good quality solid wood furnishings with a reasonable size yard for my children to play in and be safe. I used to desire a loving spouse to share life with and to be happy with. I used to crave financial success in order to provide for and maintain my family and help distressed and needy persons. I used to love the world’s symbols of success and the status and accolades that come with them. But today I hate the world. The cost of worldly pleasures and successes are too high. I Have Learned To Love The FATHER and I would like the love of the FATHER to remain in me. For there is no greater LOVE than GOD’S LOVE.
And if for no other reason than to obey GOD, I hate the world.
We should hate anything, being or system whose aim it is to oppose our GOD and destroy our souls.
We should hate the false and idolatrous religious festivals of mankind that blaspheme the name of GOD and lead many believers away from the TRUTH. We should hate pseudo-Christianity, Catholicism and Protestantism that wedded paganism and idolatry to the worship of YHVH. We should hate the demonic doctrines of capitalism and materialism disguised as Seed Faith Christianity and biblical principles. We should hate gospel songs and gospel performers that sing song lyrics that lie about GOD, pervert God’s WORD and give false hope to a dying people. We should hate homosexuality and lesbianism as well as those who promote and celebrate such abominations and practices. We should hate lewdness and profanity, nakedness and sensuality, lust and carnality. We should hate pedophilia and bestiality and all forms of sexual perversions. We should hate the pagan festivals of Christmas and Easter and despise their misuse of the name of YHVH and of CHRIST. We should abhor the gender role confusion that feminism perpetuated by naming females as Pastors, Bishops, Elders and Apostles.
There isn’t anything about this world and its many fabricated forms of Christianity and man-made religious festivals that we should love and celebrate. (Amos 5:21-24 and Matthew 7:21-23)
We should HATE the world!
ONLY WHEN WE HATE THE WORLD CAN WE GENUINELY LOVE GOD. (James 4:4)
