I find it amusing that you equate pride to this issue and try to make this some conspiracy to deceive. I neither cared or not how it made me feel personally, I was relating God’s Word as I have read it. Again quote me a verse where I am wrong and I’ll recant forthwith, otherwise maybe you should read for meaning instead of subjectively putting your spin on things and telling me I am wrong for the same.
If that is a source of their comfort for their hopes in the hereafter then they need more teaching about what comfort believers will get when He returns and what they need to do to prepare.
