Proverbs 26, look at what it says in verse 24. This is what true hatred actually looks like. He that hateth, dissembleth with his lips. So, he that hateth is the one that what? Dissembleth with his lips. And notice it's gonna help define it for us, and layeth up deceit within him. When he speaketh fair, believe him not, for there are seven abominations in his heart. Now, what does fair mean? Fair means good, nice, kind, pleasant. So, he's saying when someone comes up to you, and they're like, oh, I love you. Oh, we're your friend. I'm your buddy, but he's flattering you. It's actually because he hates you. You know, when I walk outside, and they're like, we love you Pastor Shelley. That's what you call flattery. That person is dissembling in their heart, because then when they call me on the voicemail, it's not that loving. It's not saying the same message. You know how many people have privately called me and left me a voicemail and says, I love you? Zero. But that's what you get outside in public. Why? Because they're liars. Because they, they just want to pretend. They're a pretender. They're fake. They say one thing, but they don't really mean it. There's seven abominations in that person's heart. Notice with this, whose hatred is covered by deceit. Love is love. That's the hatred being covered by deceit. And it says, his wickedness shall be showed before the whole congregation. Yeah, through preaching. I'm going to get up and show what that person's really like. Verse 27, whoso digeth a pit shall fall there, and he that rolleth a stone will return upon him. A lying tongue hateth those that are afflicted by it, and a flattering mouth worketh ruin. You know who's really hateful? The person that's lying to you, not the person that's telling you the truth. Let's get the real picture today. You know the person that's rebuking you and correcting you and telling you what the Bible says loves you, the person that's lying to you and saying, you're great, brother. You're so wonderful. You're so kind. You're such a precious person, but in their heart they despise you. That's the person that hates you. That's the person that really has no respect for you.
