How you answer that will determine your eternal destiny.
Why?
Quote:But see, a proud person cannot come to Christ. One must be humble in approaching God, not arrogant, not proud.Says the person who thinks he has a personal relationship with God.
Let's really take that in.
God created hundreds of billions of galaxies some 13.5 billion years ago, of which humans have only been around for about 100 K years, and you think God is aware of you, watching you and wants a personal relationship with you?
You are an insignificant mortal who lived on a tiny pale blue dot in the vast cosmos who may be fortunate enough to live for 100 years, a tiny fraction of the time humans have been around. You who are just one of 6 billion that are currently alive today, to say nothing of life everywhere else. Really? You're that important to command the attention of the Creator?
The Creator desires a relationship with you? The Creator wants to save you? The Creator can be made to feel jealous by you (Exodus 20:5)? The Creator loves you? Your praise can please the Creator? Your sins can make the Creator angry? The Creator is going to give you a mansion in Heaven? You're just so important to the Creator?
Which one of us has a problem with pride and arrogance?
