It's evil to take joy in boasting in oneself. We can't boast, even if we wanted to! It's by GOD's grace that we're saved; not by anything we could ever do. We can't save ourselves; no matter how hard we try. So, what's there to really boast about? The only One truly able to boast, is the most humble Man Who ever walked the earth: JESUS!

Eph. 2:8: "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:"

V. 9: "Not of works, lest any man should boast."
