| "In the scriptures there is no such thing as righteous pride. It is
always considered as a sin. We are not speaking of a wholesome view of
self-worth, which is best established by a close relationship with God.
But we are speaking of pride as the universal sin, as someone has
described it.... Essentially, pride is a "my will" rather than "thy will"
approach to life. The opposite of pride is humbleness, meekness,
submissiveness, or teachableness." | |
