Not taking no for an answer sinful?

You know...the Bible says this is a good work, and this is a sin, but some things it doesn't specify. I've had dealings with people who request something, it's at a bad time for me, can't do it, {or if it's money, maybe I had it set aside for something else.} But when telling these types that, instead of being considerate of you, many of them push and push it. Because it benefits THEM, but they don't care that it puts you in problems the way they want it. I think the sin here would be selfishness, they "want", and because THEY want, {and they're more important than you, in their mind} it doesn't matter if they inconvenience you, or put you in problems, as long as THEIR need gets met. So is not taking no for an answer a sin, and it comes from the fallen nature? I would say the sin here is selfishness. "I'm the one who counts, more than you." I would say not taking no for an answer has sinful qualities attached to it. Yes?

You need to protect yourself and your mental health first and foremost. Those who push upon ourselves are only serving themselves, if they do not return they are not good for you.

 

[Woodward]

It is not sinful to say no to sin and evil. No, to drinking and having parties all night long. Telling your coworkers no, when you know they are going to have one year marriage celebration in a bar. There are so many times we have to say no and Jesus would smile on your life and bless everything you do. Say yes, an eternal yes to loving Jesus, praise Him day and night. He loves to hear the praises to His dear children who love Him with all their heart, mind and soul.

Right!!That's the other part of it, they sometimes ask you to do something that assists them in committing a sin.
