As Murray contends, most do not take this virtue seriously enough, nor understand the incredible ramifications of its lack upon their genuine holiness.The first step in humility is to realize our place as a created being before the Creator. A continual and intentional reminding of who we are and our need for God is our first duty as Christians. “Pride, or the loss of this humility, is the root of every sin and evil.”The life and teachings of Jesus provide us with much instruction about the importance of humility: “Jesus came to bring humility back to earth, to make us sharers in it, and by it, to save us. In heaven, He humbled Himself to become man. The humility we see in Him possessed Him in heaven; it brought Him, and He brought it, from there.”Humility is the root of all of the graces of the Christian life, and pride the opposite: “Without humility, there is no faith, love, joy, or strength demonstrated in our lives. Humility is the only soil in which the graces take root; the lack of humility is the reasonable explanation for every defect and failure in the Christian life.”Humility is extremely practical. Murray says, “May God teach us that our thoughts, words, and feelings concerning our fellow man are His test of our humility towards Him.” Humility = practical holiness.A humble heart depends continually upon the grace of God, that attitude of heart that replaces pride. Humility comes only by grace through faith in prayer.A slow reading of this book will be an instrument of God’s Spirit to humble your soul as it did mine. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The most countercultural book I've read in years *by G***G on Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2017* Humility is not a virtue widely promoted in contemporary culture. In fact, it’s one of the traditional virtues largely dismissed today, in this age of constant selfies, self-promotion on social media, and the near-compulsion to the experience celebrity. Even in the church, we turn our pastors into rock stars, promote ourselves by writing books guaranteed to invite controversy and attention, and read more Christian celebrity self-help books than we do the Bible.Whether we’re Christian or not, humble we’re not.To read “Humility: The Beauty of Holiness” by writer, teacher, and pastor Andrew Murray (1828-1917) is, in a very real sense, to enter an alien landscape.Murray, the son of a Dutch Reformed minister and missionary, was born in South Africa, educated in Scotland, became a missionary and pastor himself in South Africa, and authored more than 240 books on faith, theology, and Christian living. He lived during the century of Darwin, Marx, and Freud, the triumvirate of thinkers who many believe permanently closed the book on the Christian faith. And yet he remained steadfast in his belief, and wrote book after book to encourage others in the faith.“Humility” was one of those books. It’s a series of meditations on the subject (this edition is updated with modern English), and draws heavily from the Bible. And this is how Murray summarizes the framework of humility: “The creature must accept that its main concern, its best asset, its only happiness, now and through all eternity, is to present itself an empty vessel in which God can dwell and demonstrate His power and goodness.” The creature Murray is referring to is the human creature.Our best attribute is being an empty vessel?Murray goes on to use the filter of human humility to reflect upon the secret of redemption, the humanity of Jesus, the teaching and disciples of Jesus, humility in daily life, holiness, sin, faith, death to self, happiness, and exaltation. He goes about his writing quietly and gently, but with a steadfast purpose – to help us understand why humility may be one of the most, if not the most, important characteristic of a Christian.“Humility” may be the most countercultural book I’ve read in years. ### ⭐⭐⭐ The why is great, but the how eluded me *by L***) on Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2019* I have read several books by Andrew Murray and loved them, but for some reason I just didn't feel that I got all I should from this one. It is probably the fault of myself and not the fault of the book, but it felt like we were going around in circles. Humble yourself, and God will give you humility. We can't gain humility ourselves, but to get humility, we have to humble ourselves. The description of what humility is and the explanation of the importance of humility resonated with me. I just got lost when it came to how we are to get humility. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/29952853-humility-the-beauty-of-holiness-updated-and-annotated](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/29952853-humility-the-beauty-of-holiness-updated-and-annotated) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-10-12*
