While atheists such as Richard Dawkins have now become public figures, there is another and perhaps darker strain of religious rebellion that has remained out of sight--people who hate God. In this revealing book, Bernard Schweizer looks at men and women who do not question God's existence, but deny that He is merciful, competent, or good. Sifting through a wide range of literary and historical works, Schweizer finds that people hate God for a variety of reasons. Some are motivated by social injustice, human suffering, or natural catastrophes that God does not prevent. Some blame God for their personal tragedies. Schweizer concludes that, despite their blasphemous thoughts, these people tend to be creative and moral individuals, and include such literary lights as Friedrich Nietzsche, Mark Twain, Zora Neale Hurston, Rebecca West, Elie Wiesel, and Philip Pullman. Schweizer shows that literature is a fertile ground for God haters. Many authors, who dare not voice their negative attitude to God openly, turn to fiction to give vent to it. Indeed, Schweizer provides many new and startling readings of literary masterpieces, highlighting the undercurrent of hatred for God. Moreover, by probing the deeper mainsprings that cause sensible, rational, and moral beings to turn against God, Schweizer offers answers to some of the most vexing questions that beset human relationships with the divine.

In Seven Things God Hates, you will discover that God is not only a God who loves but also a God who hates. Just as divine love permeates the pages of scripture, so does divine hatreddivine hatred for evil and evildoers who act contrary to the will of God. The Bible emphatically states that God is love (1 John 4:8). However, he is also a God who has a holy abhorrence for both sin and specific sinners whose sins are an abomination in His sight. The whole thrust of the Old and New Testament hinges on the love of God for man and His disdain for sin. The epitome of Gods love for man is seen in the person of Jesus Christ, the gift of God to mankind. Gods hatred for evil and wickedness is also evident. It is an often-ignored characteristic of the Lord, but a divine characteristic nonetheless. This study examines seven particular things God hates that are expressed in Proverbs 6:1619 and further expounded on throughout scripture. Get inspired by Dr. Talleys teachings on the seven things God hates. His teachings will give you a better understanding of the mind of God and enlighten your perspective about the love of God and His disgust for sin.

We live in a visual culture. Today, people increasingly rely upon visuals to help them understand new and difficult concepts. The rise and stunning popularity of the Internet infographic has given us a new way in which to convey data, concepts and ideas. But the visual portrayal of truth is not a novel idea. Indeed, God himself used visuals to teach truth to his people. The tabernacle of the Old Testament was a visual representation of man's distance from God and God's condescension to his people. Each part of the tabernacle was meant to display something of man's treason against God and God's kind response. Likewise, the sacraments of the New Testament are visual representations of man's sin and God's response. Even the cross was both reality and a visual demonstration. As teachers and lovers of sound theology, Challies and Byers have a deep desire to convey the concepts and principles of systematic theology in a fresh, beautiful and informative way. In this book, they have made the deepest truths of the Bible accessible in a way that can be seen and understood by a visual generation.
