It is a weak, beggarly spirit, that cannot admit when they are wrong. Those who are very weak will hang onto every ounce of pride they have because of their weakness.
Some are so weak that they cannot answer when they are confronted, they must continue to hide, without responding.
Those who are strong, have no fear of admitting they are wrong, there is no fear of anyone judging them or rejecting them, because they have the Holy Spirit, His truth is more important than our own reputation.
We know we are imperfect and we live in the realm of continual truth, it is more important to us than what people think of us, or what they can do to us.
Ephesians 6:10-11
"10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."
When we love the Lord, pride takes a back seat to truth and righteousness.
