What does the Bible say about self-love and self-worth?

According to the Bible, self-love can be a form of idolatry that leads us away from Godly love. In 1 John 3:16, it's written that 'God is love' and we should love others as He loves us.

How can I distinguish between Godly love and self-love?

Godly love is characterized by selflessness and sacrifice, whereas self-love is focused on personal gain and satisfaction. As Jesus said in Matthew 16:24, 'Whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will save it.'

What are the dangers of prioritizing self-love in my life as a Christian?

Prioritizing self-love can lead to pride, arrogance, and a lack of humility, which are all antithetical to the Christian faith. In Proverbs 16:18, it's written that 'Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.'
