FROM TODAY’S READING (6/22/2021)...
“…the road of self-righteousness always has a deep ditch. If you travel this road long enough it will get so narrow that it will eventually push you into this deep ditch called arrogance. The ditch of arrogance causes you to think you’ve reached super-Christian status…This is a dangerous ditch in which to find yourself because there’s only one judge on all spiritual matters there—you.”
Quote from “9 Common Lies Christians Believe: Part 3 Of 3” (YouVersion.com)
Titus 3:4-5 (NLT) But—When God our Savior revealed his kindness and love, he saved us, not because of the righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He washed away our sins, giving us a new birth and new life through the Holy Spirit.
Proverbs 30:12 (ESV) There are those who are clean in their own eyes but are not washed of their filth.
Proverbs 16:17-19 (NLT) The path of the virtuous leads away from evil; whoever follows that path is safe. Pride goes before destruction, and haughtiness before a fall. Better to live humbly with the poor than to share plunder with the proud.
