Humility:
a prominent Christian grace (Rom 12:3; 15:17,18; 1Cr 3:5-7; 2Cr 3:5; Phl 4:11-13). It is a state of mind well pleasing to God (1Pe 3:4); it preserves the soul in tranquillity (Psa 69:32,33), and makes us patient under trials (Job 1:22).
Christ has set us an example of humility (Phl 2:6-8). We should be led thereto by a remembrance of our sins (Lam 3:39), and by the thought that it is the way to honour (Pro 16:18), and that the greatest promises are made to the humble (Psa 147:6; Isa 57:15; 66:2; 1Pe 5:5). It is a "great paradox in Christianity that it makes humility the avenue to glory."
