If people are arrogant for disagreeing with you and others here than you need to get used to it. Even if the others here still have not learned to get used to different Christians living on this planet with them it's still a fact of life. That is part of growing up. Not all Christians will believe the same as you or me. What does that do to us? It should cause us to grow up more and more to be like Jesus on the path of faith He has put each one of us on individually.
I won't accuse you or others here of being arrogant nor am I threatened nor does it hurt me that you believe differently. I'm called to have faith in Jesus and what the Bible says regardless of what others may say. Regardless of the anger and misunderstanding that people have because of it. I know it will come just by me being who God called me to be. I'm up for it because Jesus called me to it. Just as He calls each one of us to it.
I'd say this is a good place to learn how to co exist with other brothers and sisters in the family of Jesus Blain. Some of the other brothers and sisters here have not done that yet and they are much older than you. It's up to you how you will deal with fellow Christians. I hope you will follow what the Bible says on these matters of faith.
Gal.5:13-26
[SUP]13 [/SUP]For you, brethren, were [indeed] called to freedom; only [do not let your] freedom be an incentive to your flesh
and an opportunity
or excuse [for [SUP][
d][/SUP]selfishness], but through love you should serve one another.
[SUP]
14 [/SUP]For the whole Law [concerning human relationships] is [SUP][
e][/SUP]complied with in the one precept, You shall love your neighbor as [you do] yourself.
[SUP]
15 [/SUP]But if you bite and devour one another [in partisan strife], be careful that you [and your whole fellowship] are not consumed by one another.
[SUP]
16 [/SUP]But I say, walk
and live [habitually] in the [Holy] Spirit [responsive to
and controlled
and guided by the Spirit]; then you will certainly not gratify the cravings
and desires of the flesh (of human nature without God).
[SUP]
17 [/SUP]For the desires of the flesh are opposed to the [Holy] Spirit, and the [desires of the] Spirit are opposed to the flesh (godless human nature); for these are antagonistic to each other [continually withstanding and in conflict with each other], so that you are not free
but are prevented from doing what you desire to do.
[SUP]
18 [/SUP]But if you are guided (led) by the [Holy] Spirit, you are not subject to the Law.
[SUP]
19 [/SUP]Now the doings (practices) of the flesh are clear (obvious): they are immorality, impurity, indecency,
[SUP]
20 [/SUP]Idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, anger (ill temper), selfishness, divisions (dissensions), party spirit (factions, sects with peculiar opinions, heresies),
[SUP]
21 [/SUP]Envy, drunkenness, carousing, and the like. I warn you beforehand, just as I did previously, that those who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
[SUP]
22 [/SUP]But the fruit of the [Holy] Spirit [the work which His presence within accomplishes] is love, joy (gladness), peace, patience (an even temper, forbearance), kindness, goodness (benevolence), faithfulness,
[SUP]
23 [/SUP]Gentleness (meekness, humility), self-control (self-restraint, continence). Against such things there is no law [[SUP][
f][/SUP]that can bring a charge].
[SUP]
24 [/SUP]And those who belong to Christ Jesus (the Messiah) have crucified the flesh (the godless human nature) with its passions and appetites
and desires.
[SUP]
25 [/SUP]If we live by the [Holy] Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit. [If by the Holy Spirit [SUP][
g][/SUP]we have our life in God, let us go forward [SUP][
h][/SUP]walking in line, our conduct controlled by the Spirit.]
[SUP]
26 [/SUP]Let us not become vainglorious
and self-conceited, competitive
and challenging
and provoking
and irritating to one another, envying
and being jealous of one another.
