Excerpt from back cover
This is the one to whom I will look: he who is humble and contrite in spirit. Isaiah 66:2
God clearly states that He is drawn to the humble. He's also clear that He opposes the proud. These two, humility and pride, cannot coexist. Where one is fostered, the other is defeated.
Quotes
"Pride is when sinful human beings aspire to the status and position of God and refuse to acknowledge their dependence on Him."
"Pride takes innumerable forms but has only one end - self-glorification. That's the motive and ultimate purpose of pride - to rob God of legitimate glory and to pursue self-glorification."
"An ungrateful person is a proud person."
