Romans 12:3
3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith. - KJV
False humility in a Church is an affront to the person and work of our Lord Jesus Christ. With a Janus-Face, false humility helps a man appear to people and God differently. While people will see a pious and holy Christian, God sees a high-minded and disobedient person. False humility ends in humiliation (disgrace). Beloved, be alert.
