Which of C.S. Lewis books is this from. It's very much to the point of Pride. So helpful

WOW, such a wise man!

This is so true. What we hate in Others is found first in us. 😮😢

This is true.

Oh so intellectual and clever are you not!

😅boI’m I’m😮u

Spot on! 8:42 consequently atheism turns out to be too 8:45 simple if the whole universe has no 8:48 meaning we should never have found out 8:51 that it has no 8:52 meaning just as if there were no light 8:56 in the universe and therefore no 8:58 creatures with 9:00 eyes we should never know it was 9:04 dark dark would be without meaning

C.S. was way too much in his own head.. still like him, tho.. *but, real ppl know I am saying the truth

A true message ❤

Amen ❤❤❤

AMEN!!! BROTHER LEWIS

Pride always comes, before the fall.

Thanks

Ty

Brilliant!

Beautyfull thoughts!! Subscribed.

Yes, pride is the mother of all sin. Keep it away from us, Lord, we pray! 🙏

No comments in 2months?? This is the voice of my hero!

Easy for you to say, Sir.

Someone like this so I’m reminded to come back and humble myself

This is from what material anyone?

A loving hammer blow. Grace and peace to you Mr Lewis. Your works live on.

So interesting! So scary!

Thank you very deeply!

The level of emotional intelligence this man had is off the charts. Lord Jesus Christ son of God have mercy on me a sinner.

Very thought provoking

A very thorough definition of pride and how to avoid it!

Feel better.

Thank you so much for this post. Can't think of a better or a deeper explanation on pride than this one. Also it was a pleasure hearing it by C. S. Lewis himself.

Restless and unhappy all your life living with pride....wow

pride is competitive.. pride is anti-God. the devil is proud.

Humility is my only fault….😊 One old old friend told me in a time of hardships that true humility was only achieved through humiliation… True Humility cannot be made, home made. A visiting priest disagreed, at first, with this statement. Until i asked him to think of someone humble he knew, who had not gone through humiliation. He paused , then said…. ‘’ hummm , you re right !’’

Hello. I am an atheist. I define atheism as suspending any acknowledgment as to the reality of any particular god until sufficient credible evidence is presented. My position is that *_I currently have no good reason to acknowledge the reality of any god._* And here is why I currently hold to such a position. Below are 10 facts I must consider when evaluating the claim made by certain theists that a particular god exists in reality. To be clear, these are not premises for any argument which _concludes_ there to be no gods. These are simply facts I must take into account when evaluating the verity of such a claim. If any of the following facts were to be contravened at a later time by evidence, experience, or sound argument, I would THEN have good reason to acknowledge such a reality. 1. I personally have never observed a god. 2. I have never encountered any person who has claimed to have observed a god. 3. I know of no accounts of persons claiming to have observed a god that were willing or able to demonstrate or verify their observation for authenticity, accuracy, or validity. 4. I have never encountered any _valid_ logical argument, which also introduced demonstrably true premises that lead deductively to an inevitable conclusion that a god(s) exists in reality. 5. Of the many logical syllogisms I have examined arguing for the reality of a god(s), I have found all to contain a formal or informal logical fallacy or a premise that can not be demonstrated to be true. 6. I have never observed a phenomenon in which the existence of a god was a necessary antecedent for the known or probable explanation for the causation of that phenomenon. 7. Several proposed (and generally accepted) explanations for observable phenomena that were previously based on the agency of a god(s), have subsequently been replaced with rational, natural explanations, each substantiated with evidence that excluded the agency of a god(s). I have never encountered _vice versa._ 8. I have never experienced the presence of a god through intercession of angels, divine revelation, the miraculous act of divinity, or any occurrence of a supernatural event. 9. Every phenomenon that I have ever observed has *_emerged_* from necessary and sufficient antecedents over time without exception. In other words, I have never observed a phenomenon (entity, process, object, event, process, substance, system, or being) that was created _ex nihilo_ - that is instantaneously came into existence by the solitary volition of a deity. 10. All claims of a supernatural or divine nature that I have encountered have either been refuted to my satisfaction or do not present as _falsifiable._ ALL of these facts lead me to the only rational conclusion that concurs with the realities I have been presented - and that is the fact that there is *_no good reason_* for me to acknowledge the reality of any particular god. I have heard often that atheism is the denial of the Abrahamic god. But denial is the active rejection of a substantiated fact once credible evidence has been presented. Atheism is simply withholding such acknowledgment until sufficient credible evidence is introduced. *_It is natural, rational, and prudent to be skeptical of unsubstantiated claims, especially extraordinary ones._* I welcome any cordial response. Peace.

Sorry. This message didn't change me when I first read it 35 years ago and it failed to change me today. Failed, irrational, and unsound arguments tend not to persuade me to the truth of the proposition. Evidentiary facts, sound logic, proper inference, and conclusions consistent with reality do.

The pleasure of being above someone else. Greed, pride, ambition to be superior to others. #Doctordecisive #AmThoth #DVerdadmedia #Freeangle7 #MentorTalks #PieEnPared #Siglantanat #Filosofiadela_vida

Did you know Jesus hated pride

❤

Words of wisdom. Sin is a burden, a stain in our lives… Only Jesus can save such wretched hearts…

The Trinity is not holy but only evil of the Devil.

Thanks Peace

So good! So true! We all need to hear this to humble ourselves and get rid of the entitlement attitude! Fake Christians, feminism it’s just sad!!!

Interesting

This is deep. Interesting distinction between pride and other vices.

Repetition of this message is important to spiritual life. Remember, remember, remember. I’m reminded of Blessed Charles de Foucauld’s observation: “It pleased God to make it easy for us to be saved. God didn’t attach salvation to knowledge or intelligence or wealth, nor to long experience or rare gifts that are not given to all. God attached it to something within the reach of everyone. Jesus attaches salvation to humility, to the act of making yourself little. That is all it takes to win heaven.” I see the wisdom of Foucauld’s observation but I don’t find it an easy one; therefore, the repetition of C.S. Lewis’ message.

Lord remind me always be humble and pride less. I want to have your recommended characteristics. Thank you, Lord Jesus!

Praise Jesus 👏 🙌 👏

And one thing about pride,it makes one to live in fear cause you might loose a certain thing. Thank you Holy Spirit for speaking to me.
