"Arrogance is the mask that conceals low self esteem"

Dr. Walton

Most arrogant people make an effort to redefine arrogance.

What does this mean?

~Redefining arrogance shifts the perspective from viewing it as an inflated ego or simple pride to recognizing it as a mask for deep-seated insecurity and fear. Many psychologists, philosophers, and thinkers view it as a defense mechanism used to protect a fragile sense of self-worth.

Key Shifts in Perspective

• Fear Dressed as Power: Experts on Psychology Today note that arrogance acts as a defensive maneuver or a way to overcompensate for feelings of inadequacy.

• The "Mask" Metaphor: Writers and philosophers often describe arrogance as a shield that insecure individuals hide behind to avoid being seen as unhappy or inadequate.
• Gullibility and Overconfidence: Some online communities—such as those discussed on Reddit—propose that arrogance is simply the pairing of overconfidence with a lack of self-awareness or gullibility.

• Confusion with Confidence: People frequently mislabel genuine, quiet confidence as arrogance when someone bravely walks their own path or challenges the status quo.

Rember this:

The humble will always outpace the arrogant.
"But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: “God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.”

James 4:6

Responding to a person with low self esteem masked by arrogance.

"Just as someone can look rich and be poor, so can someone who looks saved be a secret sinner"

Dr. Walton

Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness.
Matthew 23:27

Repent or Perish

Luke 13:1-5 NKJV
[1] There were present at that season some who told Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. [2] And Jesus answered and said to them, “Do you suppose that these Galileans were worse sinners than all other Galileans, because they suffered such things? [3] I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish. [4] Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that they were worse sinners than all other men who dwelt in Jerusalem? [5] I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.”

An arrogant person exploits another person's tradgedy to gain recognition although they had nothing to do with them in real life. There's nothing more disturbing and disgusting than an arrogant and opportunistic hypocrite.
