Today we begin a look at the 7 Deadly Sins. The first Deadly Sin is pride. It is commonly recognized as the root of all sin. Pride is too much belief in you and not enough belief in God. It is not having an accurate view of your self. We are told in Romans 12:3 that we are to think of ourselves with sober judgment. The opposite of soberness is to be drunk. And when we are drunk our minds are impaired. We don't see things as they are.
Opposite the sin of pride is the virtue of humility. If pride is having an inaccurate view of self, then humility is having an accurate view of self. We see ourselves in the proper context. We see ourselves as God sees us. We see ourselves in our true relation to him.
