Humility vs pride

    (Artist Del Parson)

    Luke 22:42
    "Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done."
    (This is by far the most humble act ever performed by mankind.)


     


    Matt. 18:4
    4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

    Matt. 23:12
    12 And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted
     
     

    Mosiah 4:10
    10 And again, believe that ye must repent of your sins and forsake them, and humble yourselves before God; and ask in sincerity of heart that he would forgive you; and now, if you believe all these things see that ye do them.

    Moro. 8:27
    Behold, the pride of this nation, or the people of the Nephites, hath proven their destruction

    D&C 118: 3 
    3 Let the residue continue to preach from that hour, and if they will do this in all lowliness of heart, in meekness and humility, and long-suffering, I, the Lord, give unto them a promise that I will provide for their families; and an effectual door shall be opened for them, from henceforth.

    BEWARE OF PRIDE

    In Humility, Our Savior, p.172 - Mabel Jones Gabbott (© 1948 LDS Hymn Book) 
    vs 1: 
    In humility, our Savior, Grant thy Spirit here, we pray,
         As we bless the bread and water In thy name this holy day.
         Let me not forget, O Savior, Thou didst bleed and die for me
         When thy heart was stilled and broken On the cross at Calvary.
