It is for me... Any advise to keep my pride level down?

You could get your pride level up by becoming an atheist.
Then you could say 'I'm not stupid and ignorant anymore' and we'd have a small parade in your honour.

Ha... no.

No it does not become difficult and matter of fact I trod on because I want you to know the truth and walk in God;s light. I want you to come out of your darkness and see the light. Your pride level is low with questions like what you ask. You like to put Christians down and thus, this makes you feel acceptable. Why go down, when you can go up??? Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved ! I am prepared, to meet your challenge . My Shield and Armor is on and I am not going to become weakened by your ways. I aim to turn you around , so that you will not become a weak, wretched lost soul. Fill your heart with Love and then you will gain the Wisdom, you so search for. God Loves you !!

It should be the same no matter the circumstances. Humilty brings a true peace that nothing can shake. Because it is low, it is very stable. Think of a race car... the lower the more stable. Humility is such. Want to learn about how to deal with pride. Read of Jesus' last days in the last chapters of the Gospels.

I once felt as you do but I noticed a lot of the people are just trolling for arguments. So the best thing when replying to an idiotic question is reply in kind. Save your true answers to those who seem truly in search. Otherwise lighten have fun and rack up points.

It helps to pity them over being angry at them. When you feel real anger, picture them being tortured forever and if your a compassionate Christian it will bother you. When you feel pity instead of anger it helps because we don't want them to go to Hell. It also helps to remember that they want us to get angry and show an ugly side so we can prove them right. They want to be able to say Christians are evil and that's why they won't change. They don't realize that pride is a huge reason people won't give their lives to God. We need to show them that we are not the enemies and neither is God. Good luck. God be with you always.

Jeremiah a million:5 "formerly I shaped you interior the womb I knew you, formerly you have been born I set you aside; I appointed you as a prophet to the international locations." This needless to say shows that our Heavenly Father Knew us whilst we the place interior the womb of our mothers. we are all distinctive and unique in our very own way. So even is a new child is aborted, being that God already knew us, those toddlers purely pass to heaven. further: God knew us formerly he created us. The needless to say ability that he gave us our souls formerly we the place created reason He already knew us and who we the place.

Take a break for awhile. You don't have to be here 24/7.
BTW, maybe some sarcastic people deserve to be rebuked harshly. Just pause and pray about it before you reply, however. Knee-jerk emotional responses rarely serve God (James 1:20; 2 Timothy 2:23-26).

If it's hard being humble, you aren't really humble.
Focus on yourself and proceed, without reference to others at all. Why do you care what other people say or think? What difference does it make to your spiritual state? What would Jesus advise you to do?

Okay i am not a christian and i dont care who says what about god not loving me blah blah blah. My opinion of Christians are that they are the most judging people out there. You wonder why people act the way they do.
I was born "out of sin" therefore im going to hell. I have sinned therefore im going to hell. Ive had premarital sex guess what im going to hell. Im sick and tired of Christian people telling me im going to hell when i know the "God" loves all his children and will forgive all sins. Some Religious people really need to pull the pole from there @$$ and open there eyes. If you want to follow a certain religion or have certain beliefs thats fine but dont sit there and push your religion on us people because you think that your right.
Im going to Hell who's coming with me?

If the Holy Spirit wasn't motivating me, I wouldn't mess with it .Y/A is an excellent place to witness for Christ. There are many smart-alecks, many pseudo-intellectuals, a few outright blasphemers, but there are many honest, searching people who can be reached. I hope my last answer wasn't confusing. I believe the entire Bible and I've been a Christian for many years. That's why I try to answer these questions. Somebody out there might just get it.
