Series: Seven Deadly SinsScripture: Genesis 11:1-9; Proverbs 16:18; Romans 7:24-25a “We often forget that the heinousness of sin lies not so much in the nature of the sin committed, as in the greatness of the Person sinned against.” —Diane Langberg “The sin I once feared to lose became a delight to dismiss. You turned them out and took their place, pleasanter than any pleasure.” —Augustine “Do not imagine that if you meet a really humble man he will be what most people call ‘humble’ nowadays: he will not be a sort of greasy, smarmy person, who is always telling you that, of course, he is nobody. Probably all you will think about him is that he seemed a cheerful, intelligent chap who took a real interest in what you said to him. If you do dislike him it will be because you feel a little envious of anyone who seems to enjoy life so easily. He will not be thinking about humility: he will not be thinking about himself at all . . . If anyone would like to acquire humility, I can, I think, tell him the first step.
