Verse 14 showed that we need to search out what is Good. To understand what is good and acceptable, we need to study the Bible. Then this verse encourages us to Hate what is bad, and love what is good. It seems like more and more, things condemned in the bible is being presented as something "good ", and that the Bible 's viewpoint is being presented as something "bad ". Satan 's world is switching the roles of Good , and bad, bringing down the morality in people. So the previous verse is really important, because we need to search through God 's word to determine the good and the bad, and then make a stand for Jehovah God 's viewpoint.
