S2E5: The Evil of Pride

Benjamin, Michael, & Cody take up the evil of pride, a sin more common and deceptive than we might initially think. They define it, and parse through its various subtleties and manifestations, in the church and society, and throughout recent history. They touch on things like:

  • False humility & its expressions.
  • Wilhelmus a Brakel on true humility.
  • Despondency, self-deprecating jokes, & suicide.
  • The "above-it-all" guy.
  • Refusal to grow, excel, & pursue glory.
  • Spoiling yourself & others of your gifts & graces.
  • Denying the gifts & graces of others.
  • The vital connection between heroism & humility.
  • The dominant lie that says piety recedes & never dares.
  • Projection, whether of meanings and/or motives.
  • The ministry of Jeremiah.
  • Being puffed up with knowledge.
  • Pharaoh's proud insanity.
  • Humility in Moses slaying the Egyptian & Samson's guerilla warfare.
  • If Calvin, Knox, Rutherford, and Owen were alive today, how long would it be before they were put under church discipline?
  • Is it pride to parrot the battles of the Reformation today?
  • In what ways do we deck the tombs of our Prophets?
  • Is the rejection of Dabney a form of pride?
  • Wokery, anti-racism, & anti-White hatred.
  • What place does weeping have?
  • Whether pride is behind the excising of Calvin's comments on the sin of Onanism?
  • Does pride underlie TGC publishing an article where a Taylor Swift concert was likened to the beatific vision?
  • The need for fresh sights of God in his glory and of our own sin as remedy to pride.
  • Rightly estimating yourself.
  • Owning and wielding your gifts for others.
