  8. Manifestations of Pride • Boasting says, “I deserve admiration because I have achieved so much.” • Self-pity says, “I deserve admiration because I have sacrificed so much.” • Boasting is the voice of pride in the heart of the strong. • Self-pity is the voice of pride in the heart of the weak. • Boasting sounds self-sufficient. • Self-pity sounds self-sacrificing.

  9. Manifestations of Pride Pride is the root of all sin. It causes us to turn away from God instead of turning to Him. All disobedience has pride as its root. All rebellion has pride behind it. All mistreatment of other people is caused by pride: someone putting their self and their feelings above the other person and their feelings.
