In the Holy Scriptures, various titles and names are ascribed to those who stand in opposition to God and His divine purposes. These appellations serve to highlight the nature, character, and actions of the wicked, providing insight into their role as adversaries in the biblical narrative.

1. Enemies of God: The term "enemies of God" is used to describe those who oppose His will and reject His commandments. In James 4:4 , it is written, "You adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore, whoever chooses to be a friend of the world renders himself an enemy of God." This passage underscores the enmity between worldly desires and divine allegiance.

2. Children of the Devil: Jesus Himself uses this stark title in John 8:44 when addressing those who reject His message: "You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out his desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, refusing to uphold the truth, because there is no truth in him." This designation emphasizes the spiritual lineage and moral alignment of the wicked with Satan.

3. Workers of Iniquity: The Psalms frequently refer to the wicked as "workers of iniquity," highlighting their active participation in sin. Psalm 5:5 states, "The boastful cannot stand in Your presence; You hate all workers of iniquity." This title reflects the deliberate and persistent nature of their sinful actions.

4. Sons of Disobedience: In Ephesians 2:2 , Paul describes the wicked as "sons of disobedience," indicating their rebellion against God's authority: "in which you used to walk when you conformed to the ways of this world and of the ruler of the power of the air, the spirit who is now at work in the sons of disobedience." This term underscores their willful defiance and spiritual insubordination.

5. Fools: The book of Proverbs often refers to the wicked as "fools," a term that denotes moral and spiritual folly. Proverbs 1:7 declares, "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline." This title highlights their rejection of divine wisdom and guidance.

6. Ungodly: The ungodly are those who live without regard for God and His laws. In Jude 1:15 , the term is used to describe those who will face judgment: "to execute judgment on everyone, and to convict all the ungodly of every ungodly act of wickedness and every harsh word spoken against Him by ungodly sinners." This name emphasizes their irreverence and impiety.

7. Scoffers: Scoffers are those who mock and deride the things of God. In 2 Peter 3:3 , it is written, "Most importantly, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires." This title captures their disdain and ridicule for divine truth.

8. Wicked: The term "wicked" is a general designation for those who are morally corrupt and opposed to God. Psalm 1:4 contrasts the righteous with the wicked: "Not so the wicked! For they are like chaff driven off by the wind." This name encapsulates their inherent unrighteousness and instability.

These titles and names serve as a sobering reminder of the reality of spiritual opposition and the characteristics of those who choose to stand against God. Through these descriptions, the Bible provides a clear depiction of the moral and spiritual state of the wicked, urging believers to remain steadfast in their faith and commitment to God's ways.Psalm 37:20
But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away.

James 4:4
You adulterers and adulteresses, know you not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.
