Do you think God preformed Lashon Hara - Evil Tongue by naming names of people that did evil? NO!!!

It is not Lashon Hara - Evil Tongue to name people who are evil and pervert the Word of God.

Rom.16[ 17] Now I beseech you, brethren , mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.

2Thes.3[ 14] And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed.

1Tim.5[ 20] Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear.

Just to name a few people to show it is scriptural to name evil people.

Rom.9[ 13] As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.

1Tim.1[ 18] This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest war a good warfare; 1 9 - Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck:
20 - Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.

2Tim.2[ 16] But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
[
17] And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;
[18] Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.

2Tim.4[ 14] Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil: the Lord reward him according to his works:[15] Of whom be thou ware also; for he hath greatly withstood our words.

2Tim.1 [ 15] This thou knowest, that all they which are in Asia be turned away from me; of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes .

2Tim.4 10] For Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world, and is departed unto Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus unto Dalmatia.

2Tim.3[ 8] Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.

3John.1[ 9] I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes , who loveth to have the preeminence among them, receiveth us not.[10 ] Wherefore, if I come, I will remember his deeds which he doeth, prating against us with malicious words: and not content therewith, neither doth he himself receive the brethren, and forbiddeth them that would, and casteth them out of the church.

Acts.8 [9 ] But there was a certain man, called Simon, which beforetime in the same city used sorcery, and bewitched the people of Samaria, giving out that himself was some great one:
[10] To whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, This man is the great power of God.
[11] And to him they had regard, because that of long time he had bewitched them with sorceries.
[12] But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.
[
13] Then Simon himself believed also: and when he was baptized, he continued with Philip, and wondered, beholding the miracles and signs which were done.
[
14] Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John:
[
15] Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost:
[
16] (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.)
[
17] Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost.
[18] And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles' hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money,
[19] Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost.
[20] But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.
[21] Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of God.
[22] Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee.
[23] For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and in the bond of iniquity.
[24] Then answered Simon, and said, Pray ye to the Lord for me, that none of these things which ye have spoken come upon me.

reprove by naming people

Gal.2[ 11] But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed.

Phil.4[ 2] I beseech Euodias , and beseech Syntyche, that they be of the same mind in the Lord.

Col.4[ 17] And say to Archippus , Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou fulfil it.

Matt.23 [ 1] Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples,
[2] Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat:
[3] All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do;
but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not.
[4] For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers.
[
5] But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments,
[
6] And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues,
[
7] And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi.

[8] But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.
[9] And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
[10] Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ.

[11] But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.
[
12] And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.
[
13] But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.
[
14] Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.
[15] Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.
[
16] Woe unto you, ye blind guides, which say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor!
[
17] Ye fools and blind : for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold?
[
18] And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty.
[
19] Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift?
[
20] Whoso therefore shall swear by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things thereon.
[
21] And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein.
[
22] And he that shall swear by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon.
[
23] Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.
[
24] Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.
[
25] Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess.
[
26] Thou blind Pharisee , cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also.
[
27] Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness.
[
28] Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
[
29] Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,

[30] And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.

[31] Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets.
[32] Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.
[
33] Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers , how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
[
34] Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:
[
35] That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.
[
36] Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.
[
37] O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!
[
38] Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.
[
39] For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
