I cited the text in which we are exhorted to emulate God, who blesses both the righteous and the unrighteous. Now it’s your turn to cite a passage commanding us to hate sinners.

While you search, here’s another text. Don’t bother quibbling about the meaning of, ‘brother.’ Jesus addressed that issue in the parable of the Good Samaritan (among other places).

1 John 4:20

If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen.

[imardmd1]

If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; . . .

The ingrained, deliberate habitual wrong-doer who, after hearing the proclamation of the gospel, refuses to believe it and continues the life-style of rejecting the power over sin that submission to Christ brings--is not my brother.
