God does hate the reprobate, and He is angry with the wicked everyday. What we must be careful about, however, is that we are commanded to love our enemies and do good to those who persecute us, et al. God's hatred is a perfect, holy, and just hatred. Ours, on the other hand, is not because it is tainted by our own pride, self-righteousness, and sinfulness.

God, as a righteous Judge, does it, which ought to silence us under all our sorrows; as many as they are, we have deserved them all, and more: nay, God, as a tender Father, does it for our necessary correction, that we may be humbled for sin, and weaned from the world by all our sorrows; and the good we get by them, with the comfort we have under them, will abundantly balance our sorrows, how greatly soever they are multiplied. - Matthew Henry |
