What it means to be "Puffed Up"

Being "Puffed Up" is not about reading too much of the bible. It is more on reliance on one's pride in one's one knowledge (which could be knowledge of the word or worldly wisdom) and not seeking true council from the word of God. And how can one understand the word of God without making conscious effort to study it?
Now, brothers and sisters, I have applied these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit, so that you may learn from us the meaning of the saying, “DO NOT GO BEYOND WHAT IS WRITTEN.” Then you will not be PUFFED UP in being a follower of one of us over against the other.
1 Corinthians 4:6 NIV
