Once the element of competition has gone, pride has gone. The proud stand more in fear of men's judgment than of God's judgment. The proud love the praise of men more than the praise of God. Prideful people are not so concerned as to whether their wages meet their needs as they are that their wages are more than someone else's. A proud person hates the fact that someone is above him.
Selfishness is one of the more common faces of pride.
Another face of pride is contention. Arguments, fights, unrighteous dominion, generation gaps, divorces, spouse abuse, riots, and disturbances all fall into this category of pride. The proud are easily offended and hold grudges. They withhold forgiveness to keep another in their debt and to justify their injured feelings. The proud depend upon the world to tell them whether they have value or not.
