Why God hates sin.
A good friend Got divorced this year and and somehow found the daily email service of 'divorcecare.com'. For the past several days they've been going on like a 5yr old asking for another piece of cake about how God hates divorce. They've probably said 'God hates divorce' thirty times in the past 4-5 daily 'inspirational' emails...but they never say WHY God hates divorce and the implication is always that the divorced person failed to meet some holy standard of God.Today I had enough and sent the following email to my friend...
For the past several days these folks go on and on about how God hates divorce…BUT THEY NEVER TELL YOU ‘WHY’ GOD HATES DIVORCE. They make it seem like God has this holy standard and, if you divorce, you’re not meeting that standard…you’re a failure, a scumbag and not worthy. BULLSHIT…mankind isn’t worthy from day one (i.e. there is NO ONE righteous (in right standing before God), no not one – Rom 3:10)…and God certainly isn’t kicking us while we’re down…that’s the outcome of the holier than thou SELF-righteousness (i.e. I’m better than you) of man. So…God doesn’t hate divorce because it doesn’t meet his holy righteous standard…
GOD HATES DIVORCE BECAUSE IT HURTS YOU…AND HE LOVES, CARES FOR AND ACCEPTS YOU UNCONDITIONALLY AND DOESN’T WANT YOU TO SUFFER…AND HE HATES THE BASTARD THINGS THAT HURT YOU AND CAUSE YOU SUFFERING.
That’s why God hates divorce…or any other sin for that matter.
Ok…now I feel better…geez, a guy can only take so much….please return to your normally scheduled programming :)

nice way to take up for your friend. bet you're not very popular in the ban-the-divored-to-hell-along-with-all
-the-other-sexual-sinners crowd.
i'm going to file your point and pull it out for other people. with attribution, of course. 8-)
