I Serve an Intolerant God who hates!

When the new Roman Catholic Pope was first named a few years back, he sure was in the news a lot. Most folks really hate the guy because he is so intolerant and hateful. What are some examples? 

Well, I understand that the Pope is very intolerant of killing babies. He even says that folks who promote killing babies might some day be punished by God. 
The Pope is also very hateful toward homosexual behavior. Apparently he wrote a paper or something giving guidelines on how to give pastoral care to gays, but in the end, he still says it is a sinful act and he will not condone gay priests or gay marriage. 
That is very intolerant and hateful, which may be the reason why folks are so intolerant and hateful of guys like the Pope.

This got me thinking about God. And I realized something; the God I serve is in some ways like the Pope. 

The God I serve does not tolerate the sin in my life. 
I am sure I read somewhere in the Bible that God hates it when I reject Him and chose to commit sinful acts. 
I realized today that God is very intolerant of anything that takes me away from His loving purpose for my life. 
God hates it when I do things that work against His plans to bring blessings into my life. 
Yes, I serve an intolerant God who hates, and I wouldn’t have it any other way!
