Pride

Leviticus 26:19

"I will break down your stubborn pride and make the sky above you like iron and the ground beneath you like bronze."

"No, not even God could sink the Titanic," was the designer's boast.

John Lennon (The Beatles) created a furor in 1966 when he claimed, "We're more popular than Jesus now." He went on to say, "Christianity will go, it will vanish and shrink. I needn't argue about that. I'm right and will be proved right."

In the end? Titanic sunk, John Lennon was shot to death. Could all this be just coincidence? Or is it what God said, "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."? Hmmmm... Free for thoughts :D
