The Bible has much to say on the subject of pride. Proverbs 13:10 says.."Pride only breeds quarrels." Proverbs 16:18 says, "Pride goes before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall." And Proverbs 16:5 shows "The Lord detests all the proud of heart. Be sure they will not go unpunished."
How many of us read these words and say, "Not me, not me. I don't have false pride. I know that everything comes from God and is on loan to me." But often there is a more subtle way in which we Edge God Out - that is... FEAR!
