THE BLINDNESS OF PRIDE

Personally, I wouldn’t have wanted to be involved with this church. And had I been responsible for their spiritual growth and obligated to write them a letter, I doubt I would have started by saying, “I always thank God for you.”

Why? Because I’m proud. And only those who are humble can consistently identify evidences of grace in others who need adjustment. It’s something the proud and the self-righteous are incapable of.

But Paul, in his humility, saw the Corinthians from a divine perspective, and he allowed this perspective to determine his attitude toward them. And let me say by the authority of God’s Word that you and I must hold this same perspective toward the believers around us. After all, if Paul can find evidences of overflowing grace even in the Corinthian church, what possible excuse could you and I have for our not finding evidences of grace in our fellow believers?
