“Pride AND Faith”... just about says it all doesn’t it?

It’s kind of like saying “Have your cake AND eat it too”... no?

Pride is the antithesis of faith... It’s the exact opposite... the conjunction “AND” is what makes the title so foolish.

Holding onto your pride is what rejects your faith.
Having faith is what convicts you of your pride.

You cannot have both... it is self deception.

[Maudeen]

Proverbs 16:18 Pride goes before destruction,and a haughty spirit before a fall.

We know the end of the story. . . .how sad.

TRUE enough.
PRIDE is the FIRST of the seven deadly sins.
It was THE original sin, thinking of Lucifer.

[Mrs. Don-o]

"...reconcile their identity and faith.

"Gay" is not your identity. You get your identity from your Savior, not from your appetite.

Reminds me of a saying:

"God calls you by your name and gradually erases your sin.
The devil calls you by your sin, and gradually erases your name."
