Pride (Latin: superbia) is considered, on almost every list, the original and most serious of the seven deadly sins. [WIKI]

Pride is an excessive view of one's self without regard for others.

The Bible says the following in Jeremiah 9:23-24, “...Let not the mighty man boast of his might...but let him who boasts boast of this, that he understands and knows Me...”

Pride is also mentioned in the following verses: Proverbs 8:13, Proverbs 16:18, Romans 12:16, 1 Corinthians 13:4, Galatians 6:3 and James 4:6-7.

Humility cures pride by removing one's ego and boastfulness, therefore allowing the attitude of service.




THEIR PUNISHMENT:-


Prideful people--those guilty of committing the deadly sin of pride--are said to be punished in hell by being "broken on the wheel.
