The Arraignment of Pride by William Gearing. Pride is one of the most prevalent sins both in and out of the church today. The scriptures make it clear that God hates selfishness and pride. “Everyone who is proud in heart is an abomination to the Lord; Assuredly, he will not be unpunished” (Proverbs 16:5). “The fear of the Lord is to hate evil. Pride and arrogance, and the evil way, and the perverted mouth I hate” (Proverbs 8:13).The Arraignment of Pride is a work of thirty-four chapters. These include: Of the Causes of Pride, Of the Kinds of Pride, Of Pride of Beauty and the Vanity thereof, Of pride of Gesture, Of Pride of Hair, Of Pride of Riches, Of Pride of Honour, Pride of the Heart, Of Pride in the Will, Of Pride in the Affections, Of Pride of Gifts in general, Of Pride of Wit, Of the Odiousness of Pride, Of the Greatness of this Sin of Pride, Of the Cure of Pride, Christ a great example of Humility in his Life, Christ a notable example of Humility in his Sufferings and Death, and more. The Arraignment of Pride has not been published since 1660. In addition to The Arraignment of Pride, we have added to the book a shorter work by Robert Bolton titled Helps to Humiliation
