I Love to Hate
by Pastor Mark Downey
Scripture Reading: Romans 13:10-12
This is a message guaranteed to irritate politically correct
liberals or even kosher conservatives who pretend to be defenders of a
moral culture, when in fact, both contribute to the decadence and
corruption of society. My original title was “A Time To Hate' from the
book of Ecclesiastes and then changed to 'Hate Is A Family Value,' but I
decided to settle on the proactive title 'I Love To Hate,” because
it's self explanatory (which I'll explain in a moment) and logical. It
would be a contradiction to say I hate to hate. That's like Bill
Clinton saying, “We will not tolerate intolerance.” Let me say from
the onset that there's nothing wrong with hate unless someone comes
along and redefines it to mean something malicious, malevolent, sadistic
or satanic etc, which is exactly what totalitarians do in a
dictatorship; they can make words mean whatever they want; and it
becomes a war of words. Orwell
exemplified this in his classic novel '1984' with three slogans: war
is peace, freedom is slavery and ignorance is strength. If they make
sense, you're either a master of doublethink or have stopped thinking
altogether. The last thing a dictatorship wants, is it's subjects
hating what the regime wants you to think.
