Christian group’s hateful stance clashes with Jesus Christ’s teachings on love
A recent blog post by a self-proclaimed Christian group claims that God hates certain people—and that believers should do the same. The argument stands in stark contrast to core teachings across multiple faiths, where love is presented as a central commandment.
The Bible repeatedly emphasises love as the highest virtue. In Leviticus 19:17-18, the command is clear: ‘Do not hate your brother in your heart… Love your neighbour as yourself.’ Jesus later reinforced this in the parable of the Good Samaritan, where even an enemy—someone from a despised group—is shown mercy. The story ends with Christ’s instruction: ‘Go and do likewise’ (Luke 10:36-37).
The blog’s stance conflicts with foundational religious texts that prioritise love over division. From Leviticus to Christ’s sermons, the instruction remains consistent: show kindness, even to opponents. Faiths beyond Christianity, like Baha’i, similarly uphold love as a unifying force. The debate highlights how selective interpretation can distort a message repeated across scriptures for millennia.
