Great verse. One of my favorite. And ... ?
What has it to do with the point you failed to make in the OP?
Mark 7:21-22 "For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,[SUP]22 [/SUP]Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:"

Yet another who focuses on judgement instead of forgiveness. Definitely a nasty spirit and precisely the reason why you encounter opposition.
I suppose not all have eyes to see the point, but perhaps you'll like this one as well...
Proverbs 6:15-19[SUP]15 [/SUP]Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy.
[SUP]16 [/SUP]These six things doth the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:
[SUP]17 [/SUP]A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
[SUP]18 [/SUP]An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
[SUP]19 [/SUP]A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

Oh, but I do! It is squarely affixed to the top of your head. And yes, for the record, that qualifies as an insult.
You have posted nothing but out of context verses that utterly fail to prove anything regarding your OP.
Every mountain shall be made low....
Job 40:12 "Look on every one that is proud, and bring him low; and tread down the wicked in their place."
Psalm 101:5 "Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.
Proverbs 21:4 An high look, and a proud heart, and the plowing of the wicked, is sin.
Job 40:12 "Look on every one that is proud, and bring him low; and tread down the wicked in their place."
Psalm 101:5 "Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.
Proverbs 21:4 An high look, and a proud heart, and the plowing of the wicked, is sin.
It might insult some, but what I said is a Biblical truth....

Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
1 Samuel 2:3
Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let not arrogancy come out of your mouth: for the Lord is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed.
