It is hate that cares nothing about the mess people make of their lives that lead them into hell. Those who empower selfishness and evil are hateful, not those who try to snatch the lost from the fire.
As you have probably already heard somewhere, "correction" is the new hate." To dare to correct someone who is ruining their life or the life of someone else is determined as hatred.
Since "everyone does what is right in their own eyes" in this generation, it is unthinkable that anyone would correct someone else. Those who rage the loudest are those who claim others do.
Since believers know the end of this life and the coming judgment they are bolder than those who are merely focused on personal happiness and worldly acceptance.
There is no need for a believer in Christ to rage about anything. We know the truth, we speak the truth and because we are secure in our walk with Christ, we have no aversion to correction or attacks. If they come we pray and allow God to be our defender.
Proverbs 29:8-10 "…8 Mockers inflame a city, but the wise turn away anger. 9 If a wise man goes to court with a fool, there will be raving and laughing with no resolution. 10 Men of bloodshed hate a blameless man, but the upright care for his life.…"
Proverbs 29:10-12 "…10 Men of bloodshed hate a blameless man, but the upright care for his life. 11 A fool vents all his anger, but a wise man holds it back. 12 If a ruler listens to lies, all his officials will be wicked.…"
Proverbs 18:2
"A fool takes no pleasure in understanding, but only in expressing his opinion."
