Excessive Pride must always sit at the head of the table.
One young snob suggested that excessive Pride was really only “Enlightened selfishness.”
Excessive Pride is the donkey that carried Christ into Jerusalem and thought that all the loud hosannas were for him.
Excessive Pride stands in the vestibule of the church and does not say, “Let me tell you what my Lord has done for me.”
Rather, it shouts, “Let me tell you what I have done for the Lord. Indeed, let us see if I can find my pedestal; I always speak better when I am standing up there.” Excessive Pride is a loud mouth that doesn’t know when to shut up.
What are the causes of Excessive Pride ?
Excesive Pride of birth? Was not Christ the Son of a carpenter?
Excessive Pride of wealth? Did not Jesus have but one seamless garment to his His name?
Excessive Pride of reputation? This Son of man, did He not eat with publicans and sinners?
Excessive Pride of self? In the garden, did not this Master Workman of the race pray, “Not my will but Thine be done.”
Excessive Pride in death? Was not “Jesus the Nazarene” crucified on a cross between two thieves?
“Humble yourselves [feeling very insignificant] in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you [He will lift you up and make your lives significant].” James 4: 10
