Pride is stealing from God the rightful glory due to Him


Pride, the Worst of the Deadly Sins


Sin is the worst evil a person can commit in one’s life. Sin can broadly fall into the following categories or what are called the “Seven Deadly Sins”: Pride, Gluttony, Greed, Lust, Sloth, Wrath, and Envy. 
Now although all these sins are exceptionally dangerous to a person’s soul, there is one that stands out: pride. 
Pride is one of the worst sins on this list because it taints every virtue, and makes salvation much harder to obtain.  
Although the seven virtues counter each of the deadly sins, pride is the sin which is able to affect them all in a way that the others cannot.
Let us therefore go through the list of virtues, and realize how horrid it is to mix in the sin of pride.
  • Humility ...
  • Generosity ....
  • Chastity ...
  • Meekness...
  • Temperance ...
  • Kindness ...
  • Diligence ...
