What does the Bible say about pride and destruction?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible warns that pride leads to destruction and that humility before God is essential.

Scripture teaches us that pride is a significant spiritual danger. In Proverbs, we see that 'Pride goeth before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.' This highlights the outcome of an arrogant mindset. Additionally, Paul reminds the Corinthians to take heed, indicating that self-reliance can lead to a fall (1 Corinthians 10:12). The Lord's jealousy for His glory manifests in His responses to prideful attitudes, where we are reminded to approach Him with humility and reverence.
