How many times have you run into those who are angry at a correction. Usually these are people who need correction often because they never listen to the correction therefore they don't learn.
They also tend to be angry all the time on the inside. They appear to have little joy as well as little concern or interest in others. These people are angry just under the surface all the time ready to emerge over the smallest matters. Any little hint of disagreement ignites rage in their soul.
It has been my experience that those who refuse to be corrected grow worse over the years. They have been stubborn in their responses to correction so long that it is a bad habit that slops over into every area of their life. There can be no joy in someone who has anger looming under the surface.
Those who are so full of pride that they cannot admit their failures will never learn from those failures.
Those who have destroyed their relationships through self promotion and superior attitudes can never be close to anyone. They will attempt to pretend they have close friends but it is an illusion.
In order for a relationship to be close, two people have to work through disagreement, sickness, sadness, joys and everything else in life through lots of time spent together.
Relationships can never be built on occasional visits based on good times and pleasure. Relationships are based on mutual respect as well as acceptance and even admiration of the personalities and concerns for one another.
When self is on the throne there can be no one else that shares that kingly status.
A good example of this was the devil himself. He rebelled against God seeking to take over the throne of God. When He could not do that he enlisted many minions of devils to come along with him.
Was the devil concerned about what would happen to the devils that would follow Him? NO, he knew he was taking them to hell with him. His plan is to take as many human beings with him as possible before being thrown into the fire himself.
This is the mentality of people who are rebellious. Their desire is to enlist as many people as possible to engage in their sin, they never like to sin alone. And, they are angry at those who will not accept it and indulge with them.
In relationships the evil men must have "flying monkeys" who follow them into their abyss of wicked behavior. They are never content to do evil all by themselves, they must have followers.
The evil man is also hell bent on destroying anyone who will not come along with them.
DO NOT GO ALONG WITH THEM!!!!
1 John 5:19 "19 We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one."
1 Samuel 15:23 "23 For rebellion is like the sin of divination, and arrogance like the evil of idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of the LORD, he has rejected you as king.”"
Proverbs 22:24-25 " 24 DO NOT MAKE FRIENDS WITH AN ANGRY MAN, and DO NOT ASSOCIATE with a hot-tempered man, 25 OR YOU MAY LEARN HIS WAYS and entangle yourself in a snare.…"
