Jeremiah
"Do not be proud"
Text: Jeremiah 13:15
THE FOOLISH SIN OF PRIDE
One of the most unnecessary and foolish of sins is pride. It is usually deeply embedded and very difficult to remove from a person.
“Hear and give ear:
Do not be proud,
For the LORD has spoken.
Give glory to the LORD your God
Before He causes darkness,
And before your feet stumble
On the dark mountains,
And while you are looking for light,
He turns it into the shadow of death
And makes it dense darkness.
But if you will not hear it,
My soul will weep in secret for your pride;
My eyes will weep bitterly
And run down with tears,
Because the LORD’s flock has been taken captive.”
Jeremiah 13:15-17
