The Sin of Pride

Posted on April 22, 2019 by admin

Historically, the Christian Church Considers Pride the Most Dangerous of the “Seven Deadly Sins,” Listed as the Worst of the Seven in in Dante’s Inferno.

But More Importantly, it is the Sin Most Closely Associated with Satan in the Bible (Isaiah 14:12-14). Indeed, Pride Tops the List of the Seven Things that the Bible says God Literally Hates (Proverbs 6:16-19).

In Hieronymus Bosch’s famous 1485 oil painting,”The Seven Deadly Sins and the Four Last Things,” Pride is depicted as a woman looking at herself in a mirror being held by a demon.
However, today the sin of Pride is inextricably identified with the LGBT Movement. Below is a screenshot from a simple search of Google Images using just the word “Pride.” One must scroll through several pages to find even a single image that is not associated with LGBTs.

 

Equally disturbing, their arrogant misappropriation of God’s rainbow has closely identified it with the LGBT movement as well.

In Genesis 9:13, God created the rainbow to serve as a sign of His covenant never again to destroy the earth by flood: “Behold I set my bow in the sky.” He had brought the flood as punishment for extreme rebellion against Him, the form of which is identified in the Jewish Talmud as homosexual and bestial marriage ( Genesis Rabbah 26:5:4), a fact that Jesus also obliquely asserts in Matthew 24:37-38 (referencing the corruption of marriage implied by Genesis 6:5). God then incinerated Sodom and Gomorrah in Genesis 19 to warn that the next time mankind rebelled to the same extreme as Noah’s generation, destruction would come by fire ( Jude 1:7, 2 Peter 3:7).

Hijacking God’s Rainbow to associate it with the same sexual conduct that He severely condemns in both the Old and New Testaments is not a minor spiritual crime. In Ezekiel 1:28 and Revelation 4:3, the Rainbow is identified as the specific symbol of God’s presence and authority. Thus, the act of cloaking “Gay Pride” in God’s Rainbow is an attempt to diminish and overrule Him: the very crime for which Satan was cast down from heaven ( Isaiah 14:12-14).

But sadly, many Christian individuals and congregations have rejected the teachings of the Bible and taken sides with “pride,” a phenomenon with grave spiritual implications.

The Bible Gives Specific Warnings About the Last Days Antichrist in Revelation 6:2 and 13:7. While that Man Has Not Yet Been Revealed, the Culture of His Short-Lived Kingdom Appears to be Taking Shape Now.
“I looked, and behold, a white horse, and he who sat on it had a bow ; and a crown was given to him, and he went out conquering and to conquer.”
“It was also given to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them, and authority over every tribe and people and tongue and nation was given to him.”
Almost universally, a conqueror plants his flag on conquered territory as proof of his authority and control. Never in history has any cultural or political movement achieved the power to plant its flag over churches as the LGBT movement has done, much less has any done so across virtually the entire denominational spectrum and an ever-widening swath of the world.
Revelation 11:7-8 identifies the culture that will define the Antichrist’s kingdom:
” When the two witnesses have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up from the Abyss will wage war with them, and will overpower and kill them. Their bodies will lie in the street of the great city— figuratively called Sodom and Egypt —where their Lord was also crucified ” (i.e. Jerusalem will be defined by homosexuality and polytheism).
