We don't want God to tell us we're wrong. We want to be the judge of our own life. And if God should send the Holy Spirit to convict us or a Bible teacher to instruct us—in our day it's a missionary, an evangelist, a pastor, or a Christian—we reject the truth. We rebel against the truth. We defy the commands of God and we do so boldly and arrogantly.
