Proverbs 6:18-19 (ESV)
18 a heart that devises wicked plans,
feet that make haste to run to evil,
19 a false witness who breathes out lies,
and one who sows discord among brothers.
The final four of the seven things God hates are listed. The fourth is “a heart that devises wicked plans.” This person thinks about and calculates how to effectively do wrong. “Feet that make haste to run to evil,” the fifth in the list, describes this person’s longing and hurriedness to follow through with her sinful plans. The sixth characteristic is a “false witness” who communicates things that simply are not true, and harms others as a result. And finally, in the seventh position, the climax of the list describes the person who disrupts family members, including those of a common community. All those who trust in the Lord rightly call God their Father, and God despises the actions of the one who creates friction between his people. When you run across this person, avoid her at all costs. Don’t be foolishly allied with the woman who seeks to divide the children of God.
