Humility

It was C.S. Lewis who said, “Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it’s thinking of yourself less.” Roy Rodgers said, “If you can do it, it ain’t bragging.” James 4:6, “And he gives grace generously. As the Scriptures say, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” In the book of Daniel we can learn a lot about pride and humility… Because of the awful destruction caused by the Babylonians, Babylon became a symbol for the stereotypical enemies of God and His people. (Sodom and Egypt are also used in this way.) Babylon in the book of Revelation is portrayed as the ultimate enemy of God and persecutor of His people. ---------------- Thank you for listening to the Calvary Chapel Bakersfield podcast!
