But if you want to be arrogant and obnoxious and think the worst of me because I have sympathy for others, then this conversation is over. Ka kite.
Oh I see... those that don't lock step agree with your point of view.... are "
arrogant" and "
obnoxious"
It's one thing to desire for others to find the Lord and do what they can to help that along... it's quite another to "care" when God's Word specifically tells us the cares of this world is one of the things that chokes God's Word out of someone and causes them to be unfruitful. (see
Mark 4:13-20)
You obviously have not looked in scripture to see what the Lord teaches concerning "care"...
1 Peter 5:7
Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
Philippians 4:6
Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
Care (found in 2 Corinthians 11:28)
from 3307 (through the idea of distraction); solicitude: KJV -- care.
Careful (found in Philippians 4:6, 1 Peter 5:7)
from 3308; to be anxious about: KJV -- (be, have) care(-ful), take thought.
John 14:27
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.
Colossians 3:15
Let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
2 Corinthians 10:5
Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
Isaiah 26:3
Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.
Psalm 23:4
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
Psalms 55:22
Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.
