Consequences Of Pride

Contributed by James Dina on Jul 28, 2020

Pride goes before destruction.Whosoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted. You cannot do any good unless “the mighty hand of God” is with you! Therefore, be humble and look to His hand for all success.

“Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall” (Proverbs 16:18). Pride, the first-born son of hell, unclean and vile, is a ringleader and captain among iniquities, daring and God-defying sin. It has nothing lovely in it. Pride exalts it head, and seeks to honor itself; but ...read more

Aim To Be An Amos, Not An Amaziah

Contributed by Daniel Habben on Jul 27, 2009

This world is filled with Amaziahs. They’re people (including ourselves) who think they can have spirituality without the light of God’s Word.

If you could be any person from the Bible, who would it be? Would you like to be Adam or Eve barefooting around the Garden of Eden with no fear of stepping on a rusty nail or a thorn?
