God's most stubborn enemy!



(Jonathan Edwards, "Spiritual Pride")

"I hate pride and arrogance!" Proverbs 8:13

"The Lord detests all the proud of heart. Be sure
 of this: They will not go unpunished." Prov. 16:5

Pride is a person having too high an opinion 
of himself.

Pride is the first sin that ever entered into the
universe, and the last sin that is rooted out.

Pride is the worst sin. It is the most secret of
all sins. There is no other matter in which the 
heart is more deceitful and unsearchable. Alas,
how much pride the best have in their hearts! 

Pride is God's most stubborn enemy! There is no
sin so much like the devil as pride. It is a secret and subtle sin, and appears in a great many
shapes which are undetected and unsuspected.

"I hate pride and arrogance!" Proverbs 8:13

"The Lord detests all the proud of heart. Be sure
 of this: They will not go unpunished." Prov. 16:5
