God’s Love Does Not Cancel His Holiness
Charisma News- Aug. 2, 2026 -- God’s love is one of the most celebrated truths in Scripture. But according to pastor Isaiah Saldivar, many Christians have become so focused on God’s love that they rarely stop to consider what the Bible says He hates.
In a recent livestream teaching on Proverbs 6:16-19, Saldivar reminded believers that “the same Bible that tells us God is love also tells us the things that God hates.”
“We have to preach the whole counsel of God,” he said. “The same Bible that tells us God is love also tells us the things that God hates.” Saldivar emphasized that God’s hatred of sin is not rooted in cruelty but in His holy nature.
“A holy God has to hate the things that destroy the people He loves,” he said.
Rather than allowing culture to redefine sin, Saldivar urged Christians to return to Scripture as the standard for holy living.
“The standards haven’t changed,” he said. “God is still holy.”
Pray for Personal Conviction
Before walking through the seven abominations listed in Proverbs, Saldivar challenged us to examine our own hearts instead of focusing on everyone else’s failures.
He pointed to Psalm 139:23 as the proper response: “‘Search me,’ not my wife, not my husband, not my friend. ‘God, search me.'”
“Open your heart. Humble yourself,” he said. “Whatever God wants to reveal, whatever God wants to speak to us, God wants to heal us.”
Saldivar stressed that the goal is not condemnation but transformation.
“Jesus died to make you like Him,” he said. “Every sin I’m discussing, God can forgive you. God can wash you. God can cleanse you. But you’ve got to understand that this is a serious thing.”
The Seven Things God Hates
After laying that foundation, Saldivar unpacked the seven attitudes and actions Proverbs says are “an abomination” to God, explaining that many begin long before outward sin is visible.
1. A Proud Look
Saldivar called pride the root that often produces every other sin because it places self above God.
“Pride says, ‘I know better than God. I don’t need to repent. I don’t need anyone telling me what to do.'”
He warned that pride isn’t limited to arrogance. It also appears in refusing correction, constantly seeking recognition, blaming others and living independently of God.
“The person with pride is usually the last person to recognize it,” he said.
2. A Lying Tongue
Because God is truth, Saldivar said dishonesty reflects the character of Satan rather than Christ.
He explained that lying includes more than outright falsehoods. It also includes exaggeration, half-truths, manipulation, broken promises and presenting ourselves as more spiritual than we really are.
“Small lies are still lies,” he said. “There are no white lies.”
3. Hands That Shed Innocent Blood
Saldivar said every human life carries value because people are created in the image of God.
He connected this warning not only to murder but also to hatred and violence, emphasizing that God hears the cry of innocent blood.
“God values human life,” he said. “Human life is not cheap. It’s not disposable.”
4. A Heart That Devises Wicked Plans
Rather than addressing only sinful actions, Saldivar said God also judges the deliberate planning behind them.
Whether it is manipulation, revenge, fraud or sexual immorality, he warned that hidden intentions matter to God.
“God says, ‘I see the plan before the action,'” Saldivar said.
5. Feet That Are Swift to Run to Evil
Saldivar contrasted people who accidentally stumble into temptation with those who eagerly pursue sinful environments.
“You’re not falling into temptation,” he said. “You’re pursuing sin.”
Instead of asking how close we can get to sin, he encouraged us to pursue God’s presence and, like Joseph, flee temptation.
6. A False Witness Who Speaks Lies
While similar to a lying tongue, Saldivar explained this sin specifically targets another person’s reputation through false accusations, slander and rumors.
“A person’s reputation takes decades to build and one false accusation could ruin it forever,” he said.
7. One Who Sows Discord Among Brothers
Saldivar concluded by pointing to unity as something God deeply values within the body of Christ.
He warned against gossip, suspicion and unnecessary division among believers, noting that Jesus Himself prayed for unity before going to the cross.
“God loves unity,” Saldivar said. “God hates when people split and divide His body.” He closed by reminding us that every one of these sins can be forgiven through Christ, but Proverbs makes clear they should never be treated lightly. Instead, they should drive us to repentance, humility and a renewed desire to honor the Lord in both our hearts and our actions.
LONGING FOR THE GARDEN
Creation Moments- July 27, 2026 -- “Science as an institution is not about truth, but about power.”
This was stated and thus admitted by leading futurist and prognosticator, Y.N. Harari, at the World Economic Forum (WEF) meeting in Davos, Switzerland, in January 2026.
Harari’s books have sold 50 million copies in 65 languages and are highly recommended by the elite and powerful all over the world! He is a historian who dives deep into evolution to begin his thinking and influences many like-minded elite humanist “thinkers and shakers” of today. The books include Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind (2014) and Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow (2016). “Homo sapiens” is, of course, the evolutionary science classification for “humans”, supposedly evolving after other “hominid” classifications such as Homo habilis, Homo erectus, and Homo neanderthalenthis (Neanderthal Man). Harari’s book title “Homo Deus” is, of course, a play on the same scientific naming system, with “Homo Deus” provocatively meaning “man-god” in Latin. This is supposedly what mankind will now evolve into with the technological manipulations that those at the World Economic Forum and others have in mind. This is where Harari sees the connection to AI and “transhumanism”, where AI is merged with human capacity, control of information, and even embedded in biology. https://creationmoments.com/newsletters/evolution-artificial-intelligence-and-the-end-of-the-age/ The fact is that in the plans and worldview of many of the globalist elite are the assumptions of God-less evolution – billions of years to evolve stone-age “ape-men” from micro-organisms into Homo sapiens. Homo sapiens (people) thus become simply “dominant animals” who both create and wreck things on planet earth in supposedly a very short time compared to the “deep time” assumed for evolution. But we “dominant animals” can now greatly accelerate evolution through “better” manipulation of psycho-social and biological structures; enhancing our own evolution to become more and more like little “gods” ourselves – the old promise of the Serpent in the Garden of Eden.
In previous speeches and interviews Harari has said, “Science is replacing evolution-by-natural selection with evolution-by-intelligent design.” (1) Clarifying, “This is not the intelligence of some god above the clouds but OUR intelligent design and the intelligent design of OUR ‘clouds’ – the IBM cloud, the Microsoft cloud – these are the new driving force for evolution.” In his worldview, there is no God, and no Creator transcends natural processes and materials. He has said, “The whole idea that humans have this soul or spirit, and free will, and nobody knows what’s happening inside me and what I will do in an election or in the supermarket – this whole idea is OVER.”(2) And he has the ear and the admiration of so many “elites” of the world today, including Bill Gates, Barack Obama, and Mark Zuckerberg.
Harari frames the coming power of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to control humanity, by saying: "To dominate humanity on a massive scale, all you need is a coordinated cabal of elites feeding the world the same made-up stories — total fictions designed for control."(3) A nuanced evolutionary worldview is thus emerging, one which arguably leads to the fulfillment of Bible prophecies for the end-times concerning one-world government, one-world religion, deception and illusions, and images of “beasts” which come to life (Revelation 13:7-15).
Control is the thing that is desired and necessary for wielding power. And it is ever more able to be exercised for surveillance, brainwashing, and other totalitarian motives with the advent and progress of AI. https://creationmoments.com/newsletters/evolution-artificial-intelligence-and-the-end-of-the-age/ But the Bible makes it clear that God knows about this kind of rebellious plotting and assertion of human ego. For example, “Why do the heathen (the nations) rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, ‘Let us break their bands (our connections to God and Christ) asunder, and cast away their cords from us” (Psalm 2:1-3). The Lord, of course, gets the last laugh. “He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision” (Psalm 2:4).
No wonder the angel at the end of the age in Revelation 14:6-7 “having the everlasting gospel to preach…” says… “to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people” … “worship Him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.” The angel is driving home the point that, together with the redeeming death and resurrection and coming kingdom of Jesus Christ, is the foundational fact that the supernatural creation of all things was by the living Word of God! Creation is foundational to everything else! Our salvation is shaped by our understanding of origins. People like Harari are betting it all on a false gospel – a gospel that is not “everlasting” and a god that exists only in their minds and in their mirrors. In the end, the Lord defeats the global collective of humanist pride and false religion, and its leader, Satan. In the end, we all have the opportunity to be filled to overflowing with the infinite love of our One, true, infinite God! https://creationmoments.com/newsletters/evolution-artificial-intelligence-and-the-end-of-the-age/ God made us in His image for, among other things, freedom! This flies in the face of what the devil stands for, which is domination, manipulation, and control. And it flies in the face of any totalitarian control system. Salvation through Jesus Christ is an offer of freedom which is freely given to those who are free to accept or reject it. Freedom permeates the Christian message through and through! It is a foundational principle of His church – a church which “the gates of hell shall not prevail against” (Matthew 16:18). Evolutionism has captured the minds of many, and its proponents are powerful and numerous. But the truth of God satisfies spirit, mind, and body! His Word is “living and powerful and sharper than any two-edged
sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” When we proclaim His truth online or on the radio, we proclaim something more powerful than anything made by man. And we are called to bring this message of the truth of God to all peoples of the planet. Would you help us by praying and giving towards your ministry? Only through your support can we reach out with the truth of the Bible and with ever more languages to more parts of the globe. The time is now! “Behold, now is the day of salvation” (2 Corinthians 6:2).
THINGS THAT CANNOT BE SHAKEN
Hebrews 12:25-29
In general, people like security. We seek what is comfortable. Yet the reality of our world is that much instability exists. For example, finances, health, and even a country’s ability to survive are not guaranteed.
When our foundation is shaken, we often feel overwhelmed. Sometimes Satan causes the difficulty—with God’s permission, of course. At other times, challenging circumstances are brought about by the Lord’s hand. Regardless of the source, we have the promise in Romans 8:28 that “God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.” And in either case, the Almighty’s purpose remains: to glorify Himself in our world and in our lives.
There are different reasons that the Lord permits turmoil, but for now, let’s focus on one: He will not allow anything that enables man to seem self-sufficient in his own eyes. Therefore, God may lovingly allow enough trouble for us to realize our need of Him. Consider the trials the Israelites faced each time they turned away from the Lord to worship other gods. In many ways, we do the same thing today. Individually, in our churches, and as a nation, we often glorify “gods” like money or status. But the One who created us will not tolerate this.
In our pride, we tend to think we’re able to manage without God. But out of love, He may stir up our life to reveal our dependence upon Him. If you are basing your security on anything except Jesus Christ—even something as seemingly innocent as comfort—it will prove to be sinking sand.
