IMITATE the Character of Christ: Humility

Pride is at the root of all sin.1 John 2:15-17; Proverbs 8:13, 11:2, 16:5, 18, James 4:6Humility is not humiliation. Psalm 8:5-6; Matthew 5:3, 5“Humility is not thinking less of yourself but thinking of yourself less.”- C.S. LewisRomans 12:3 Matthew 23:1-12Pride judges based on outcomes and expectations yet justifies its own behavior based on intentions.  Pride focuses on  superficial appearances. Pride desires status, titles, and worldly power. Mark 10:35-45Mercy, integrity, and servanthood are the way of Jesus.Philippians 2:1-11Humility leads to unity.Jesus’ mindset concerning power was upside-down compared to that of the world. John 13:3-5,12-17What will you do to crucify pride and clothe yourself in the humility of Christ?1 Peter 5:5b-6
