4 /5 Ike: I have many great memories at this church. Ive seen hundreds of low income families receive food and help through their faithfulness toward Christ. I have only one encouragement. I heard a message that was inspired by the teachings of David Platt who claimed that God hates the sin AND the sinner. My wife to be challenged the pastor on this and he asked where in the bible does it say that God loves the sinner and hates the sin. Read Romans 5:8.
