SMUG

Have you noticed how people look at you differently these days?
 
Maybe it is because I am ‘starting’ to look older?  More and more people are actually holding the door for me; more and more are being overly polite; more and more are letting me go first, etc.
 
However, I know better from some of those ‘nice’ people.
Is there respect coming from them?  NO!
Patience?  NO!
Tolerating me and my beliefs?  Doubtful!
 
But the one look I have been seeing more and more lately is a look that I can not only see, I can feel it from their eyes and facial expression.
 
To them, I am not only old, I am from the years when America was horribly discriminating, unfair, mean, ‘wrong’ in so many ways, etc. 
 
  • I am not only old,’ I am old and white.  To them, I know nothing and am some horrible person.
  • To them, I am out of touch with the real world.
  • To them, I haven’t learned a thing from my 68 years.
  • They hate that not only do I vote, I don’t vote for their liberal side.
  • I will give respect to our country’s flag.
  • I respect the military and if I could, I would pay for those serviceman’s groceries and lunches, etc.
  • I actually enjoy watching President Trump ‘do his thing.’
  • I am a Bible-Believer – in fact, I believe the KJB166 is the ONLY Scriptures!  I believe it must be rightly divided to understand it.  I believe it was not only inspired, etc. it was also preserved right up to the KJB in 1611.  I believe there will never be another ‘bible,’ no matter how scholarly they claim it to be, that would be the true inspired and preserved Word of God that is 100% the words of God.
  • I even believe that protesting is fine, if done lawfully, as it is designed to do so!  I have been there, done that!  I am part of the generation who fought for that freedom on campus that now no longer exists!
  • I believe people can have their opinion and don’t have to agree with mine.
  • I also believe a woman and a man are different and have their own Godly designed roles and purposes in life.
  • I have a lot of thoughts and beliefs towards children and teens…
  • …and I could go on for a lot longer list of what I believe that so irritates just about everyone today.
 
However, the newbies today are beyond the traditional ‘generation gap’  These millennials – these younger people – these college students – these high school students – these modern unisex parents - these perverted new life-stylers - these foreigners who came over illegally, these political lefties – and of course, these old folks who have allowed the media to subtly change their thinking during their aging years into men and women who think it is to be switching roles – old men with ear-rings, pony tails, liberal thinking, tattoos, beer drinking, immodesty and sexual perversions, etc. are all ok… old women who are louder, bolder, bossier and more damaging to their family than Mt. St. Helens was to Washington state when it erupted in 1980!
 
These people look at you and me with this SMUG look.
 
I can not only recognize it, I can even see it in their smiling ‘nice’ faces. I can still feel the hatred and disgust they have towards me and what I believe.  I can sense their lack of tolerance even though they claim to be all-loving and all tolerating people – EXCEPT TOWARDS PEOPLE LIKE YOU AND ME!
 
These definitions of ‘smug’ are very appropriate!
  • too satisfied with their abilities or achievements. 
  • having or showing an excessive pride in oneself or one's achievements.
  • Irritatingly pleased with oneself, offensively self-complacent. self-satisfied.
  • very pleased and satisfied with yourself, and having no doubt about the value of what you know or have done:
  • a smug person is self-satisfied. You can usually recognize someone who is pleased with himself by his smug little smile and self-righteous remarks.
  • smug is the opposite of modest and unsure. In cartoons, the smug character often walks around with his chest puffed out and his ego leading the way.
  • describing arrogant and over-confident people or behavior: arrogant, proud, conceited...
  • marked by excessive complacency or self-satisfaction
  • very pleased and satisfied with yourself, and having no doubt about the value of what you know or have done:
Here are some great synonyms for those who are ‘smug’ towards you/me:
complacent
egotistical
pompous
self-righteous
self-satisfied
conceited
egoistic
governessy

holier-than-thou
hotshot
moralistic
narrow-minded

priggish

prissy
prudish
puffed-up
puritanical
sanctimonious

self-contented
self-satisfied
self-congratulatory
self-righteous
strait-laced

pleased with oneself
snobbish
stuck on oneself
stuck-up
stuffy
superior
vainglorious​​
Romans 11:25 - For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery,
lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel,
until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. 


Romans 12:16 - Be of the same mind one toward another.
Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.


Philippians 2:3 - Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory;
but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.


Proverbs 26:5 - Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own conceit.

Proverbs 26:12 - Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? there is more hope of a fool than of him. 

Proverbs 26:16 - The sluggard is wiser in his own conceit than seven men that can render a reason. 

Romans 1:30 - Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters,
inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 

 
I Timothy 6:4 - He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words,
whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, 

 
II Timothy 3:2 - For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud,
blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

 
Oh, and one more thing…
Bonus mini-sermon: ​
Do you see that Romans 11:25 shows the basic reason why people are like they are today?  Do you see that?  It boils down to the preaching of Paul and Paul only.  …ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. People are ignorant of the very mystery that ONLY PAUL preaches and teaches.  They are ignorant of the mystery that a rightly divided King James Bible shows!  Thus, they become conceited religious folks who think they live a good enough life to be blessed by God and THAT WE DON’T!
 
Ephesians 3:1-4 - For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles, If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward: How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words, Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)
 
This is why I believe that looking to a rightly divided KJB, the words of Paul, which are the words and teachings of the RISEN Christ are so important – that EVERYTHING ELSE THAT IS PREACHED AND TAUGHT IS NOTHING BUT PROFANE AND VAIN BABBLINGS!
 
We are told to SHUN them – not learn how to tolerate and live with them, go to their churches, listen to the pastors who continue to keep their people ignorant of the mystery that ONLY PAUL presents.  Those preachers who, in spite of their friendliness and love for their church and people, are still considered ‘evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived.
 
When it is time for the fulness of the Gentiles to be come in – when the Gentiles no longer continue in the goodness of God (and I’ll say it again - that is PAUL ONLY!), then we get taken out – and their conceit will be challenged by the antichrist himself – and the times of tribulation begin.
 
So, I guess I can look past their smugness – and hope that somehow someone would still be interested in a KJB, rightly divided, looking to the RISEN SAVIOUR through Paul – with a little Paulson involved.
I could say more… but nah!  This is enough for now.  I promised I would keep these short.
