What sort of Demons are behind Mocking and Arrogance?

[Lea77]

I have noticed the root of arrogant behaviour and people who mock seemed to becaused by insecurity.

From a spiritual point of view, we all have areas where we may struggle with confidence but it doesn't neccesaarily bear fruits if being abusive or arrogant to others.

Proverbs 16:5

 

[Gregory Thompson]

The lamp of the wicked is sin. The heart is the prism.

Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.

Proverbs 16:5

I think you make a good point.

Often, when I am faced with something radically different from the way I think, it is easy for me to retreat into my safety zone of familiarity. "Those crazy Brits are driving on the wrong side of the road! What is wrong with them? Whatever could they have been thinking??"

I think we all secretly want to be right every time, and it is easier to resist change than it is to accept it.

Best wishes,

It's also grown to be a cultural thing as traditional centuries of identity stumble due to outside influence

Proverbs 16:5

Interesting thought. My son is often abusive and arrogant, not all the time, but at times. I have thought about trying to build his self-esteem, and trust in God's acceptance, but it is often hard.

Probably more than you and I can count.

May God grant you and your son peace and comfort!
