There will never be a full agreement between people motivated by pride, and people motivated by humility and servanthood.
Pride was the root of satans rebellion and exaltation of his talent and beauty intelligence over God. People that are filled with pride will always fight against humble servants, because the prideful are easily taken captive by the devil to do his will.
Fools display pride and superiority over others with their words… The words of the wise are preserving and protecting.
Proverbs 14:3 In the mouth of the foolish is a rod of pride: but the lips of the wise shall preserve them.
2 Timothy 2:22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart. 23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes. 24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, 25 in meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; 26 and that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
