What Our Pride Deserves

GospelPoweredThe Bible teaches that God humbles those who exalt themselves. Jesus received the humbling that our constant and unremitting self-exaltation merits. What does it deserve? Crucifixion! In other words, our self-exaltation is so heinous in God’s sight that it must be crucified. That is the humbling our pride deserves!

The Crucial Virtue

GospelPoweredHumility is the crucial virtue.
Without it, the Christian will not be fruitful. Humility is the fertilizer that nourishes our souls and makes us fruitful. Without it, we will lack zeal, be unable to mourn sin, and have little compassion and patience for others. In short, without the pursuit of humility, our souls will wither.
