Humility is one of the attributes of a born again believer. Humility comes by the realization of the human character of the nature of mankind. (once I was blind, but now I see). The church in Rome and all it's splendor, Televangelist, Trinity Broadcasting Network, Oral Roberts,(send me 3 million dollars or the Lord will kill me episode), Just to name a few (very few). This world is cluttered with, rather, more like overtaken, with the name it and claim it groups. I use to receive letters from Rev. Ike to send money for a red prayer string for a monetary donation that suppose to work to increase my net worth. (why didn't they use it then?)
We are in the last days, by proof of the seventh Church of Laodicea. The seventh and last church of the seven is the period and practice of the churches of this age. "because thou sayest we are rich and increased with goods and have need of nothing" (Rev. 3:14-19) and is the general attitude of the world council of Churches of this age. I believe the seven churches to be seven different periods or ages that the Church goes through in that order. Pride runs rampant through the visible church. One of the churches I was a member , that some of the women would be loaded down with jewelry The pastor allowed a couple that were living together to do some of the music. I was relieved of my teaching class because I was teaching about tithing under the law is not required by the church. A church in Nashville is big enough to have fireworks inside the building, the pastor makes $1,000,000 a year. I could fill pages enough to make a book with several volumes, of the pride and absence of humility in the Churches.
The true church is small compared to the visible church's of Laodicea. Like the man that was at the banquet, not dressed in wedding attire and was asked to leave, so it will be when the Lord comes to the banquet of the wedding feast, many will be asked to leave! (Matt. 22:1-14)
