God's hate !
God's hate !
Rom 9:13
13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.
God's hate of an individual, for esau was an individual first and foremost, and thats how Paul is referring to him here,
Gods hate of an individual is the very opposite of His Love for an individual, with those He hated, it was His Eternal Decision ,determination that He would impute unto them [as the non elect] their sins, and hold them solely accountable for them, outside of His Eternal Elective Love for the Chosen in Christ Eph 1:4, He determined before time began to hold each non elect responsible for the least to the greatest violations /trespasses and transgressions of His Law, He determined to Create them without a Surety for their sins, and that they would not receive mercy from Him, being they were not of His Created Vessels of Mercy Rom 9:23, and so God determined from Everlasting to punish them for their sins, as He from Everlasting, for those He loved in Christ, determined not to punish them for their sins, no, to not even impute them to them !
Thats the essence of God's hate of men, they are deprived of His Electing Love in Christ Jesus !
