God hates pride.

According to the biblical narrative, if you're looking for the answer for how to get yourself kicked out of heaven -- pride is place to start.

The the birth of sin in the universe starts with pride. Pride is the blueprint of hell's rebellion.

The culture that we live in today will use your pride and your selfish ambition to find yourself at the gates of hell. Our culture today loves to tell you that the way that you can get the most satisfaction and happiness out of this life is to make your life about you, to put you at the center.

The greatest rival to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit is me, myself, and I.

Pride is the downfall of everything.

In the sermon, catch a glimpse into what is happening beneath the surface of pride, and how to find freedom and redemption into looking at the greatness of King Jesus.

1 So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy, 2 complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. 3 Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. 4 Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. 5 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, 6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. 9 Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, 10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Philippians 2:1-11
