Excessive Pride!
Wednesday, December 20, 2023 at 7:21AM Joshua 23:6 Therefore be very courageous to keep and to do all that is written in the book of the law of Moses, that you not turn aside from it to the right hand or to the left;
Each King in Israel was commanded to write a personal copy of God’s law, leaders not knowing the law are a curse to the people they rule over.
Today we have extreme pride, hubris towards the law of our land, wisdom has been trashed traded for cowardliness, selfish pride and greed.
Hubris is an excess of confidence: a boxer who shouts “I’m the greatest!” even though he’s about to get pummeled by a much stronger opponent is displaying a lot of hubris. Hubris is from Greek, where it meant “excessive pride, violating the bounds set for humans” and was always punished by the gods.
