41. Q. Is God pleased with those who do not love and obey him?
A. No. ‘God is angry with the wicked every day’ 1 Cor 16:22).
(Click through to read scriptural proof.)
God is a righteous judge,
and a God who feels indignation every day.
You have wearied the Lord with your words. But you say, “How have we wearied him?” By saying, “Everyone who does evil is good in the sight of the Lord, and he delights in them.” Or by asking, “Where is the God of justice?”
There are six things that the Lord hates,
seven that are an abomination to him:
17 haughty eyes, a lying tongue,
and hands that shed innocent blood,
18 a heart that devises wicked plans,
feet that make haste to run to evil,
19 a false witness who breathes out lies,
and one who sows discord among brothers.
If anyone has no love for the Lord, let him be accursed. Our Lord, come!
