The Dangers of Pride

It is unsafe for a man who desires to serve Christ to “think of himself more highly than he ought to think.” But he should “think soberly.” If the Lord’s servant fails to give himself sober consideration, he is liable to become “high-minded” and to cease to “fear,” and “pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.” Pride is a foe that blinds us to our faults, and, sad to say, to the virtues of others. The haughty spirit will not forgive, and the proud heart can feel no pity, yet none need pity and forgiveness more.—Western Recorder.
