OK, Timmy. OK. If you want to hate people, go ahead...

Yeah, and I've put this into several messages and then deleted it. Preached this year in a good strong OP church, at a woman because she quoted a verse to her neighbor during the preaching. Top volume, top speed, pointing her out and insinuating some things about her before and after: God never intended for a woman to be a man! Sit down! I’m mad now! He ain’t preachin, he’s mad. God gets mad too. God hates too. Prov 6:16 (reader: These six things doth the Lord hate) Hates. And if God hates ‘em, and if I’m an ambassador of Christ, I hate ‘em. And if God’s message is a message of “I hate these things”-well, his messenger is gonna preach the same message! God hates those things. But this messenger is not preaching it because it’s a message. I hate them too. Because I love God. I love His word. I love His ways.
For starters, this is prooftexting in it's prime.
But more on topic:
If God hates something, I'm sure He is more than capable of taking care of the person or situation, all by Himself.

Still boggles the mind that someone would let themselves be spoken to that way, but I suppose the fear is so deep that she most likely even talked to him after the service and personally apologized for her disrespect to God's anointed.

Yep, but she did it more out of politics and in the hope that he would not bash her again later for not going than anything, I think. And she left a couple months later.

Figured as much. I am sure she entered his office to apologize, he accepted it with a warning and some words about "lessons learned" and to be more careful next time, and as she turned to leave he stared at her butt the whole way......
I am sorry. I have zero respect for guys so full of themselves. They open themselves up to be publicly mocked.
Did she leave this church or Christianity completely?

Just the church.
