In 1992, a man by the name of Rodney King was severely beaten by four Los Angeles Police officers and it was caught on tape! The policemen were arrested and tried as criminals for their conduct. In the end, all the policemen were exonerated; declared not guilty by a mostly white jury. So many in the black community of L.A. were enraged, they literally burned down their own neighborhoods, looted their own stores, and destroyed their own lives! In all fifty-three people were killed and over 2,000 were injured.
This is but one example of the folly of our sin! In the name of sinful pride, we do all sorts of stupid things which ultimately hurt ourselves. Men forfeit their jobs because their pride won’t allow them to submit to a co-worker. We ruin vacations and free time smoldering over the actions of another, ignorant of our own offenses. We remain alienated from those we love because we are too proud to say we are sorry. And perhaps the worst of all, we refuse to submit to God lest we lose control or autonomy over our lives!
