A Remedy For Dealing with Pride


It is difficult not to think more highly of ourselves than we should. The flesh is the souls greatest enemy, even though Christians are no longer enslaved to it, see Rom 7-8.

Do you want to know a practical Remedy For Dealing with Pride? Read Christian biographies like Iain Murray's The Forgotten Spurgeon or Dallimore's Susanna Wesley.

But even better read John Foxe's The New Foxe's Book of Martyrs. These Christian men and women and boys and girls of the faith (past and present) will shatter our self appointed trophies of pride. They are the true heroes of the faith (note Hebrews 11).
