The ebook Humility: The Beauty of Holiness by Andrew Murray reveals that "meekness and lowliness of heart are the chief mark by which they who follow the meek and lowly Lamb of God are to be known." In this age of pride in affluence, status and appearance, Murray's message is very timely: "Humility is the only soil in which the graces root. Pride must die in you, or nothing of Heaven can live in you. Look not at pride only as an unbecoming attitude, nor at humility only as a decent virtue: for the one is death, and the other is life; the one is all Hell, the other is all Heaven." Murray explains how a Christian can live this life of humility by examining the relationship between humility and sin, faith, holiness, happiness, exaltation and other facets of the Christian life.

Andrew Murray was the prolific author of over 240 books. He lived and preached the life of humility in Christ in South Africa during the 1800's.
