Bible Question: I did really good on a test at school and I want to tell people; however, pride is a sin. :( Why is satisfaction with my achievements a sin? |
Bible Answer: Shalom. Wlecome to the forum. Peace be with you. First, read Prov.16:18."Pride goeth before destuction, and an haughty spirit before a fall." A little pride in yourself, and your accomplishments, can lead to more pride in yourself, and less room for the Lord. Satan's fall is a well known example.Isa.14:10-16. " a little leaven, leaveneth the whole lump"(1 Cor.5:6) A little pride can ruin any goodness, if we are not careful. God bless,michael |
