One of the most disruptive forces in the Church is arrogance. It is natural for people to bring their pride to Church, and try to prove their own greatness to others. This is an urge we need to constantly be fighting
We need to stop comparing ourselves to others, and stop patting ourselves on the back for attaining artificial measurements of spirituality. We need to take care that we do not think we are something we are not, or else we may deceive ourselves, setting ourselves up for rebuke in the future when we see Christ face to face
A mature Christian is a humble Christian
We need to never consider ourselves as having 'arrived'; always trying to learn how we can change to be more like Christ
Our time on earth is not well spent by counting rewards before God has given them to us, but rather, by looking for our faults and repenting of them
