God Hates Evil

If we have evil in us, If we want to be close to God, it is going to have to go
There is no compromising with Christ
What fellowship has Christ with Belial?
Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers:
for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness?
and what communion hath light with darkness?
And what accord has Christ with Belial?
Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever?

2 Corinthians 6:14-15

Somehow, God has to cleanse it
He is not the One that might hinder the cleansing
It would be the human who was holding onto the evil
that might hinder the cleansing

Let’s take movies for an example…
Most are not godly
Most participate in some element of evil
They are worldly certainly

They glorify things that are not godly, much evil: violence, lust, whoredom, Idolatry, self-worship, all sorts of abominable things

When we entertain those thoughts, they are filling our minds
rather than God’s word and the things of God

Be ye Holy for I am Holy
God is an all-consuming Fire
He requires our all

If someone wants to dabble in the love of the world, the love of money,
the things that God detests, that is placing oneself out from God’s protection, His covering, His shadow
It is essentially giving evil a place in your life, offering up a space for it to dwell

If your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off
In other words, cut off those things in your life that are not pleasing to God
That is a nice way to say it
The truth is: Cut off those things in your life that God hates
The more you participate in them, the more they become a part of you,
and, the more you can become numb to them

The love of money is the root of all evil
It’s hard to understand how that can be,
but since the love of money is what God said is the root of all evil,
it is not something that can be disputed
A lot of sin is committed due to the desire to attain money
Prosperity preachers who have tried to whitewash the love of money,
they have grossly distorted the word of God,
and they will be Judged very harshly,
as they have encouraged others to do the very evil
that goes against God and His heart for mankind

Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world.
If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes,
and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
1 John 2:15-16

And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee:
for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish,
and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. 
And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee:
for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish,
and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
