- Stress- (David being chased by 10's of thousands of men who were trying to kill him... and yet, he found peace and rest in God)

This morning, we're talking about the final cage: The Cage of Pride
[Jer. 9] PRAY
The name, Albert Einstein is one of the most recognizable names in all the world. Time Magazine chose him as ''Person of the Century.'' His influence is seen in nearly every part of life around the world.
The Atomic Bomb. The Big Bang. Electronics. Quantum Physics. These all bear his influence. Einstein will probably be considered for all time the standard by which Scientists measure themselves.

Because even though Einstein believed in a being who had ''Superior reasoning power,'' he once said, ''Certainly there is a God. Any man who doesn't believe in a cosmic force is a fool. But we could never know Him.''
Einstein believed in a 'cosmic force' that was intelligent and powerful, but he denied that he was a personal God that could be known.
Jesus said something different in [John 14:6]. He said, ''I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'' Jesus said-you can know God personally-through me. [1 Tim. 2:5] says, ''For there is one God and one mediator between God and humanity, the man Christ Jesus.''
Einstein was brilliant, but he was wrong. He had read the Scriptures. He understood what the Word of God said, but Einstein got the point where he believed HE was the authority, HE had all the answers, and he valued his own ideas more than he valued the Word of God. That's PRIDE.
