Please pray for me, I am struggling with hatred. I have known very few homosexuals in my life, but the ones I know I absolutely cannot stand. Idk if anyone keeps up with "celebrity news", I dont, but for some reason caught the headline of that guy "Lil nas x" being arrested on felony counts. Im sorry, I KNOW im wrong to not pray for sinners especially because I am one myself, but I see the way that guy acts and im sorry to say it, I wish he was dead.

Let us pray for God's grace to help in doing away with any and all hatred
that surely is not compatible with striving to live a righteous life according to the
inspired 'teachings' of Jesus Christ.


Pray to understand that hatred hardens the heart to the extent that one may
be completely incapable of experiencing the necessity of love. And surely the ones that are
hated may be more stable than the one who hates.
'Amen'

Hating a celebrity you've never met? usually hatred is because you know one personally and they have done wrong and you have seen it or heard about it. Righteous angry is to hate the sin but pray that the man will be healed even when they've done wrong to you or people you know or others.

I understand you. Hatred goes out to many things in life, not just the ones you mentioned. I have a lot of hatred in me too. You're already aware of the fact that we are all sinners. So the other point that I will just share with you is let the Holy Spirit in, let Him work inside you, and you will produce fruits.

Galatians 5:22–23 – “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.”

So my prayer to you is let the Holy Spirit work in you.

.... it takes a lot. I suggest you look up this individual and watch for yourself. If you stay completely complacent in your emotions maybe I should pray for you too.

... That said though, I am taking out anger on someone physically very close to me ( neighbor) who this celebrity garbage reminds me of, who im very very suspicious of due to his indirect threats of violence towards those who dont accept his trash lifestyle

.... Oops. Quoted the wrong person. Sorry. Pray for both me and my neighbor. We need it.

Just turn your face away from the world. It's all vain, and futile to concern yourself with.
You've read the bible, Gods' plan is done. It's all going to pass away and completely be forgotten.
Set your heart on the teachings of Jesus and the 10 commandments, and go to your imagination.
Place yourself in New Jerusalem.

Ask god to cleanse you from the sin. Jesus paid for it with His blood. Then ask God to show you how He sees Lil nas x. You may be surprised.

You are getting caught up in emotion, which in turn is providing time and energy to a conflicting spirit.

You see, you do not like his sin. You do not enjoy to watch another suffer. And this upsets you, which turns into a suffering of your own. But you do not understand why and you resist, which shows itself as judgement and anger. This is then misdirected towards the very person you actually care for, you just don't know it.

The world has told us to fear that which we do not understand. To divide and condemn those who are different. To trample on those who are down rather than lift up and strengthen. There is no end to division, it will continue until destruction. However, with unity comes reparation and with this infinity.

Is this man lost? Then think on how you would help him find The Way, do not think on how you could keep him in darkness.
