No, I do not think arrogance is a good thing, but I'm not sure you appreciate the difference between confidence in the Lord and arrogance. David's brother thought he was arrogant when he inquired about fighting Goliath, but I see such as faith and something to be emulated. 1 Samuel 17:28-29 (28) And Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spake unto the men; and Eliab's anger was kindled against David, and he said, Why camest thou down hither? and with whom hast thou left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know thy pride, and the naughtiness of thine heart; for thou art come down that thou mightest see the battle. (29) And David said, What have I now done? Is there not a cause? Peace be with you.
