A question was asked on another thread, How did pride enter the world.

Lucifer, and archangel was the first created free moral agent to have pride in himself, which led to his own downfall and through him, the downfall of many men since.

Now, not only do we have pride in ones self, which is sin, but we also have thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness,, evil eyes, blasphemy, and foolishness. Jesus said all these things proceed from the heart of men; They come from within,  from decision's and choices made by free moral agents.

Mark 7:22, Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:

None of these things are from God or a creation of God for Jesus said all these things proceed from the heart of men;

Mark 7:21, For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,

We can chose otherwise, we are not forced in any way to begin with pride and take upon ourselves the other sins and faults of the devil such as thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, foolishness, even murders.

For me pride is when a person overcomes evil, great accomplishments from the church, then he became powerful and treat himself as a perfect love of God. He treat himself more than Jesus to God. He treat others when he knew that they are wrong as evil worshipper. The fact that he overcome temptations he forgot to love others, compassionate heart, instead pride inside himself..... Compassionate people we are looking not a Righteous one...

I hope I am not repeating anyone...  Pride was the first sin, pride brought destruction to the first age and caused the ushering in of the flesh age.  That is why God hates it so.

Gen 3:1  And the serpent was cunning above every animal of the field which Jehovah God had made. And he said to the woman, Is it true that God has said, You shall not eat from any tree of the garden?   A lie

Gen 3:2  And the woman said to the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden,Gen 3:3  but of the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden, God has said, You shall not eat of it, nor shall you touch it, lest you die.   

Gen 3:4  And the serpent said to the woman, Dying you shall not die,   Lie number 2

Gen 3:5  for God knows that in the day you eat of it, even your eyes shall be opened, and you shall be as God, knowing good and evil.  Temptation to pride of being a god or being as God  is the downfall of many churches false doctrine.

Gen 3:6  And the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and the tree was desirable to make one wise. And she took of its fruit and ate; and she also gave to her husband with her, and he ate.  Adam failed to lead his wife to righteousness but instead joined in her sin.  Eve was deceived.  Adam sinned against God's word when He spoke directly to Adam.  Pride is the source of rebellion.  Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft.
