Pride Is Idolatry, Worshiping a Caricature God of One’s Own Image

Posted on February 9, 2016 by Matt Jury under C. S. Lewis

How is it that people who are quite obviously eaten up with Pride can say they believe in God and appear to themselves very religious? I am afraid it means they are worshipping an imaginary God.

C. S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

Posted on December 9, 2011 by Matt Jury under Carson K. Fremont, Walter G. Fremont

It is extremely hard for a Christian to submit to others when he has not first submitted his life to the full control of the Holy Spirit. A proud spirit, arrogance, or the lack of a servant’s heart is a sure sign of failure to submit to God’s control.

Walter G. Fremont and Carson K. Fremont, Power to Serve, pp. 34-35
