Have you ever wondered why some people hate people who do the right thing? It’s because they have no interest in God. They hate Him, and thus hate His followers. It comes from Satan himself. If people can’t ever possess righteousness, the very thing required to enter Heaven, then they do what Satan does, hate everyone that has it. If he (Satan) can’t ever enter paradise, Heaven, then he will stop at nothing to keep others from entering just to spite God. The righteousness we possess isn’t due to our own doing, it’s been substituted from Jesus’ life. It’s because of Him that we are seen as blameless, so we can’t take the credit. It’s available to all. Unfortunately, all don’t want it because it opposes pride. So the next time you witness people hating on others (maybe even you), remember it’s not because they (you) did anything to offend them them, it’s because they will never be able to possess righteousness because their pride won’t allow them to humble themselves. Hatred comes directly from Satan. He opposes God, so he’ll oppose you as well. All (people) that follow Satan (knowing or unknowingly) will hate you just because you follow God. We just have to accept this, like it or not, and not take it personally. We have the Truth, and it sets us free, something unbelievers can never possess.
The bloodthirsty hate blameless people, but the upright seek to help them.
Proverbs 29:10
