It's a term I don't often hear, yet I'm quite certain that anyone of us could fall to this ugly sin. Several years back, I preached a sermon on the topic of pride in your own spirituality. I shared the following thoughts with everyone. I recently stumbled on them again. Enjoy!
If you're proud about your salvation:
Remember that it is the gift of God so that no one can boast.
If you're proud about your holiness:
Remember that you're sanctified by the Holy Spirit and any righteousness of your own works is filthy rags in God's sight.
If you're proud because you love God SO MUCH:
Remember that it is His love that is shed abroad in your heart. You didn't do that either.
