I'm wondering what sorts or instances of pride I as a Catholic need to be looking out for. The devil walketh about as a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour, after all, and I'm TRYING to resist him, steadfast in the faith, but it's so easy to slip into some sins, maybe all sins, and I guess I think Bunyan is right that there is "a way to hell even from the gates of heaven."
In the present context, I would always try to present the view of the Church ahead of my own, and when for some reason I wish to present my own theological view that is narrower than the entire berth of the doctrine, I would identify it as such.
I may of course err at that, but then there are many knowledgeable Catholics here to correct me.
Great quote. I remember from somewhere that spriritual pride is most often the last to go. Of course, I have all the answers to this problem, but I'm keepin 'em all to myself.
