Kay #2, you said:

Shouldn’t they be more worried about what dishonors God? I think you are spot on to suggest that issues of shame and dishonor go hand in hand with the issue of pride. Didn’t Paul say “But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world”?

Absolutely! We need to look beyond ourselves and our own shame and look to what honors the Lord Jesus and stay away from what shames him. When men become focused on their own shame instead of looking to what is the best for the church and for the Lord Jesus, it is easy for them to miss out on what is important.

Oh my goodness, I am so behind in the comments. I feel like the story of Alice in Wonderland…I’m late…I’m late….for a very important date. I am going to finish the new post and then I’ll come back here to comment.
