Sins of attitude are more serious than sins of action because they are less easily recognized.

Here are some sins of attitude: pride, critical attitudes, bitterness, jealousy, selfishness, or inward judgment of others.

If a believer who preaches victory over sin, looks down on others, he does not realize that he does not have victory over the greatest sin of all—spiritual pride.

To despise others is the equivalent of constantly committing adultery. And for such a believer to be talking about victory over sin is ridiculous.

The more you grow spiritually, the more holy you become, and the more victory over sin you get, the more humble you will become. This is the primary proof of genuine holiness.

Human self-control produces an outward reformation. But it will leave the inner man haughty, proud, and Pharisaical.

We are called to receive grace from God to overcome sin, and we can never be proud of what we received freely.

We can be proud only of what we produced ourselves, and the holiness we produce by our own efforts will always be false holiness.

Personal Reflection:
How much we overcome our sin?
