The need for modesty:

The need for modesty:

Because we know the sin that lies within the heart

We dare not trust our own righteousness but we are altogether bold and find the basis for living-entirely in the righteousness of another

That grace alone furnishes all noble qualities - we are devoid of all good virtue apart from grace, Our love is but a fruit of His love in us. our tone and spirit of living thus must be in line with the spirit of grace.

Because Christ himself veiled His majesty to connect with the poorest and most lowly esteemed of people. And by veiling our strength which is not our own to begin with, we can love and reach out all the better .

because Christ, not man is to be worshipped and honored. if we truly worship him we would not exalt ourselves, but cause people to focus on Him and bid people to enter into a full and true worship that we are enjoying with Christ, in Spirit an in truth.
