Psalms 138:6. Though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off.
A glance of them is quite enough for him. He has no wish to know any more about them: he so hates them. Nothing can separate God from a soul so much as pride. It is that which causes the rejection of the gospel. Men will not have the humbling gospel - the sinners’ gospel. They are too fine, too good, too lofty, and so they do not want God, neither does his soul desire them. "For the proud he knoweth afar off."
