can you just get to the point since I already answered it several times over and still have no clue what you don't understand about repentance...If you answer the question, we will get there.

Irrelevant. We aren’t talking about Him being slow to anger. We are talking about Him hating.websters defines it as passing swiftly : now what do the many passages about God's forgiveness say about His forgiveness...even add this passage to the mix if you want Psalms 103:8 and many others...
it is relevant since the hatred we are talking about in context has to do with His view of sin.Irrelevant. We aren’t talking about Him being slow to anger. We are talking about Him hating.
John appeared, baptizing in the wilderness and proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. - Mark 1:4can you just get to the point since I already answered it several times over and still have no clue what you don't understand about repentance...
The LORD tests the righteous, but his soul hates the wicked and the one who loves violence. - Psalm 11:5it is relevant since the hatred we are talking about in context has to do with His view of sin.
look up the word "for" it can be used several different ways. One thing I have noticed over the years I have spent on the forums is that people love to read into things what is not there often this is done by reading words with only one possible meaning when the word can have many meanings and the context is necessary to know which is being referred to.John appeared, baptizing in the wilderness and proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. - Mark 1:4
In the same way we don’t take an aspirin to get a headache (for), we don’t repent to receive forgiveness (for).
it says it is hating the person because of the sin which is what I told you so not sure what your point is.The LORD tests the righteous, but his soul hates the wicked and the one who loves violence. - Psalm 11:5
Is this hating a person, or hating sin?
Obviously, by looking at the post you quoted, I’m well aware it can be used in different ways. Now, would you mind actually addressing what I said?look up the word "for" it can be used several different ways.

One such example is the discussion you and I are having with the word fleeting and how that relates to time. Or the word glory where I posted several different definitions and talked about each.
Of course He hates because of sin. He’s not wishy washy. But that hate isn’t fleeting.it says it is hating the person because of the sin which is what I told you so not sure what your point is.
okay, I'll be more direct...I believe you are reading the passage using the wrong understanding of the word "for" based on the context that I previously pointed out in another post.Obviously, by looking at the post you quoted, I’m well aware it can be used in different ways.

Thanks.
to the person it can be, all depends if the man is willing to set aside his sin which is the point. The hate is fleeting if sin leaves.Of course He hates because of sin. He’s not wishy washy. But that hate isn’t fleeting.
What context leads you to that conclusion?okay, I'll be more direct...I believe you are reading the passage using the wrong understanding of the word "for" based on the context that I previously pointed out in another post.
Sin never leaves.to the person it can be, all depends if the man is willing to set aside his sin which is the point. The hate is fleeting if sin leaves.
I've played this game on here before...so first present which passage you are specifically wanting to look at then we will continue.What context leads you to that conclusion?
So, if God takes away our sins as far as the east is from the west, they didn't leave? What a strange thing to claim...please provide scripture to back your claim that when God takes away our sins they weren't really taken away....Sin never leaves.

what version do you prefer, I've played that game on the forums before too and some here don't like the LexiconJohn appeared, baptizing in the wilderness and proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. - Mark 1:4

well I am on another thread and some of us disagree with you on that...in the power of the living God who has promised to make an escape for us when it comes to sin, we can live without sin...it's all about whether or not we are willing to live by the promises of God or not.I probably wasn’t clear. We never stop sinning, so sin is always there.
Now, for the redeemed, it’s no longer counted against us.
Sinless perfectionism isn’t allowed to be taught here, so there’s nothing more to say.well I am on another thread and some of us disagree with you on that...in the power of the living God who has promised to make an escape for us when it comes to sin, we can live without sin...it's all about whether or not we are willing to live by the promises of God or not.
