Self-loathing

8 June 2024

The business of hating oneself, though it appears virtuous, is in reality one of Satan’s most plausible devices. It keeps a man preoccupied with himself and his sins. The abject attitude of self-loathing may be natural in the presence of God’s holiness, but never do we find in the Bible that God requires its continuance. Having seen and admitted our faults, the command is to stand, or go, or do.
