Re: “Resentment and hatred and living to create chaos and LIE are all signs that person is NOT indwelled by Christ and not one of God's children.”
Sorry, my friend, but you are wrong (or, at least, I disagree) unless "living to create chaos" is your chief point. Hatred and resentment are simply part of the human condition. ribit has hatred for Russia. You, pretty clearly, have hatred for Obama and Biden. I am filled with resentment toward the American people who had something so beautiful and let it slip away through their ignorance, avarice and sloth. None of these emotions are wrong. They are survival traits, derived from intelligence and experience. They have nothing to do with Christianity or needing a change of heart.

Resentment and hatred exist in everybody. They do not necessarily make us hateful or resentful people. As you have told us many times, even God has hatred. He hates sin, but that covers an awful lot of things. It all boils down to the extent to which these emotions control us. If we obsess on them - as clo does with her hatred of men and for Republicans - then it advances to being a psychological problem and, perhaps, to something un-Christianlike.
