IMITATE the Character of Christ: Humility

May 14, 2023 • Matt Mouzakis

Give

Pride is at the root of all sin.

1 John 2:15-17; Proverbs 8:13, 11:2, 16:5, 18, James 4:6

Humility is not humiliation.

Psalm 8:5-6; Matthew 5:3, 5

“Humility is not thinking less of yourself but thinking of yourself less.”- C.S. Lewis

Romans 12:3

Matthew 23:1-12

Pride judges based on outcomes and expectations yet justifies its own behavior based on intentions.

Pride focuses on superficial appearances.

Pride desires status, titles, and worldly power. Mark 10:35-45

Mercy, integrity, and servanthood are the way of Jesus.

Philippians 2:1-11

Humility leads to unity.

Jesus’ mindset concerning power was upside-down compared to that of the world.

John 13:3-5,12-17

What will you do to crucify pride and clothe yourself in the humility of Christ?

1 Peter 5:5b-6
