🚨 WARNING: Pride Comes Before the Fall - The Dangerous Intoxication You Can't See Coming
🗡️ This expository sermon was delivered at Pilgrim Baptist Church in Cookeville, TN on Thursday, August 14, 2025, at 6:00 pm. 🗡️
Are you spiritually sober, or are you drunk on something far more dangerous than alcohol? In this powerful sermon from Esther 5, Pastor Fortunato exposes the deadly poison that destroyed souls in the Garden of Eden and continues to destroy lives today - PRIDE.
Discover the shocking parallels between:
✅ Physical drunkenness vs. spiritual drunkenness
✅ How Haman's pride led to his own destruction
✅ Why pride is more intoxicating than any bottle
✅ The warning signs of spiritual pride in your life
This isn't just another Bible study - it's a wake-up call for every Christian who thinks they're immune to pride's deadly grip. Watch as Pastor Fortunato breaks down how Haman went from royal banquet guest to building his own gallows, all because he couldn't handle one man's refusal to bow.
You'll learn:
• Why pride needs an audience and how it destroys relationships
• How to recognize spiritual drunkenness in yourself and others
• The difference between wine of joy and wine of destruction
• Why surrounding yourself with "yes men" leads to disaster
• How to maintain spiritual sobriety in a pride-filled world
The truth hits hard: If you're building revenge plans under the influence of pride, what you're building to hang someone else will end up hanging yourself. God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble.
This sermon will challenge your heart posture and make you examine whether you're living for God's glory or your own. Don't let pride write your story - let humility lead you to victory.
