It is characterized by an inflated sense of self-importance and a lack of humility. In the biblical context, haughtiness is often condemned as it stands in opposition to the virtues of humility and meekness that are highly valued in Scripture.<br><br><b>Biblical References:</b> <br>The Bible frequently addresses the issue of haughtiness, warning against the dangers of pride and the consequences it brings. Several passages highlight God's disapproval of a haughty spirit and the eventual downfall that accompanies such an attitude.<br><br>1. <b><a href="/proverbs/16-18.htm">Proverbs 16:18</a></b> &#183; "Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall." <br> This verse succinctly captures the inevitable downfall that follows pride and haughtiness. It serves as a warning that those who elevate themselves will ultimately face ruin.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/isaiah/2-11.htm">Isaiah 2:11-12</a></b> &#183; "The proud look of man will be humbled, and the loftiness of men will be brought low; the LORD alone will be exalted in that day. For the Day of the LORD of Hosts will come against all the proud and lofty, against all that is exalted&#8212;it will be humbled." <br> Here, the prophet Isaiah speaks of a future time when God will judge the proud and haughty, bringing them low and exalting Himself alone. This passage emphasizes God's sovereignty and the futility of human arrogance.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/proverbs/18-12.htm">Proverbs 18:12</a></b> &#183; "Before his downfall a man&#8217;s heart is haughty, but humility comes before honor." <br> This proverb contrasts the outcomes of haughtiness and humility, suggesting that while pride leads to a fall, humility paves the way for honor.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/james/4-6.htm">James 4:6</a></b> &#183; "But He gives us more grace. This is why it says: 'God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.'" <br> The New Testament reiterates the Old Testament teaching that God resists the proud. This verse underscores the importance of humility in receiving God's grace.<br><br><b>Theological Significance:</b> <br>Haughtiness is seen as a serious sin in the Bible because it reflects a heart that is self-reliant and dismissive of God's authority. It is often associated with other sinful behaviors and attitudes, such as rebellion and disobedience. The Scriptures consistently teach that God values humility and submission, and He actively opposes those who are proud.<br><br><b>Practical Implications:</b> <br>Believers are called to examine their hearts and rid themselves of any haughty attitudes. The Christian life is marked by a pursuit of humility, recognizing one's dependence on God and valuing others above oneself. The teachings of Jesus, particularly in the Beatitudes (<a href="/matthew/5-3.htm">Matthew 5:3-12</a>), highlight the blessedness of the humble and the meek.<br><br><b>Historical Context:</b> <br>In the ancient Near Eastern culture, where the Bible was written, social hierarchies and honor were significant. Haughtiness was often displayed by those in positions of power and wealth. The biblical admonitions against pride served as a counter-cultural call to live in a manner that honors God rather than seeking personal glory.<br><br><b>Conclusion:</b> <br>The Bible's consistent message is that haughtiness leads to downfall, while humility leads to exaltation. Believers are encouraged to cultivate a spirit of humility, recognizing that all they have and are comes from God.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
