"...when we see the wicked indulging themselves in their lusts, and when, in consequence, doubts steal into our minds as to whether God takes any care of us, we should learn to satisfy ourselves with the consideration that God, Who hates and abhors all iniquity, will not permit them to pass unpunished, and although He bear with them for a time, He will at length ascend into the judgment seat, and show Himself an avenger, as He is the protector and defender of His people." (John Calvin) "Nothing is more constantly affirmed in the Scriptures than that God hates all forms of evil." (Barnes' Notes)
