Pursuit of self

Dr. pinkham shares the following:

“the pursuit of self, rather than god, is not only a dire mistake, but is an expression of the sin of pridefulness, arrogance, and self-centeredness. it is a ‘salvation by self-help’ (Heb 6:1-3). however, the self cannot attain salvation alone! inward contemplation will never be a substitute for a genuine relationship with jesus christ”
