Pride

Proverbs 16:18, Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before stumbling

Proverbs 29:23, a man's pride will bring him low, But a humble spirit will obtain honor.

Pride, is pride good? Every time I go to the grocery store I keep reading the front cover of a magazine, (forgot the name of it) but they wrote a article about a man getting rich and successful with the hope of “PRIDE” This is very dangerous but yet it happenings all the time. Even with Ministers. They get so build up in them selves that they forgot who got them there, God And yes, they says God help them but give all the credit to their programs and wisdom.
I have worked under two ministers like this; one lost his church by the denotation that it was under. He started to off doctrine and teaching that if anyone left his church that they would go to “HELL” or if they didn’t do as he instructed they would be sinning. The other one became partially paralyze and was not able to continue pasturing his church. And because of that, the church stop having services and closed it doors.
Like I said, “Pride is dangerous!” But all we one time or another have it.
