If you read through the OSAS posts versus the Catholic posts, you will get a very good illustration of what true arrogance is.

Knowing Jesus' sacrifice on the Cross was not conditional and knowing, right now, that have have a place reserved in heaven is not arrogance...

One of the ways that it is not arrogance is that we do not think we are superior to anyone...We are trying to get you to believe God so that you may have that assurance yourself...

1Jn 5:13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.

No, that's Gnosticism.

You may wish to reread this thread.

The odd thing is that exactly none of your Scripture passages show assurance.
