Towers of Babel

 "Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ,

 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:" Phillipians 3:8,9.

The truth  is , God cannot change , neither will He bend His Word to conform with the demands of modernity. He is Timeless and so He cannot be expected to " move  with  the  times" because God pre-dates Time and  He will continue  to exist  after Time has ceased .

  God is the Creator of Man so it is Man who has to change , to  move with God's timing and  to conform to God's Word which abides forever.

Jesus Christ is the expression of God's righteousness which every  Believer puts on. 
The  righteous and their faith  in Christ shall abide for ever , but the works of Pride and Hypocrisy shall pass away with time. 

^"And the world is passing away, and the lust of it ; but he who does the will of God abides forever ".1 John 2:17( NKJV ).  
 God hates pride ( Proverbs 8: 13) and He debases the proud.
The proud will not prosper , for God will bring down the house of the proud. Proverbs 15:25 .

All man-made Citadels of Pride , whether  they were built by "sinners" or by "saints"; shall  not endure . 
Like the Tower of Babel , they are futile projects , they will fall and be swept  away like dust ,  by the wind of Time . 
 The haters of God , who glory in their inventions ; those who worship God's creations rather than God the Creator , they shall  wax old  like garments and fade away ; but God and His word shall abide forever. Psalm 102 :25-28.
Atheists and their ridiculous theories will fade away just as all liars and their fables , before them , have faded away with time .

Atheists'  fables about Evolution Theory , the "God Atom" and all other claims by men playing God and claiming to have " first-hand knowledge" of how the Earth and the Universe were formed and how everything "evolved" after the Big Bang" , are untenable and as such , they will  be exposed as fabrications  and they will fade away like all fables do .

 Also , all doctrines of men , which are " sanctification requirements" which have been set up as parallel or superior to the Salvation Plan

"All Flesh is as Grass"

" For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. 
The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away ": 1 Peter 1:24.
God gives Man the power to get wealth  Psalms 62 :11; and "good success". Joshua 1:8.

"Success" means prosperity , victory , triumph, achievement, fame , and eminence . 
It is the will of God that men should succeed and prosper by righteous means, in all their undertakings  on earth .

Pride is self- esteem, self-worth  or ego , self-respect ; it is the pleasure  and  satisfaction derived from personal qualities , achievements or possessions. 

People could be proud of their good fortune, educational and career success, of their exceptionally good looks, well-to-do families  and friends and proud of a host of other blessings;  which  the human beings would desire to possess. 
Taking pride in one's appearance and taking pride in one's duties and responsibilities  are the qualities of  emotionally sound persons.
Pride in oneself is positive assertion. This is Pride as in refusing to accept fear , intimidation, defeat and failure. Positive self-pride is rejecting rudeness , aggression , disrespect,  cheating , "put-downs", evil influences and manipulations from any body. 

It is proper to exhibit self-esteem or self-pride when presenting  one's achievements and assets , when necessary; like during  job interviews. 
 If you've got it, flaunt it. Sometimes , if you do not blow your own trumpet , nobody would  blow it for you..

The other side of the coin are the unpleasant  forms of pride which are egotism , self-conceit , arrogance, vanity , obstinacy ,  big-headedness ; to mention just a few .
Human beings could forget that it is God who exalts and upholds  a man and that God rules and reigns in the affairs of men. 

 When a  person 's mind is full of pride, he  would  give  the credit  for his success , not  to God , but to  his own  strength  and talents .

Also, pride would make successful persons to begin to see themselves as "superior " to  persons who do not  posses their admirable  qualities and who have not attained their height of success. 
There are persons who do not have anything  worthwhile to show for their  arrogance , but they derive satisfaction from their own delusions.

Such deluded persons are full of fantasies about their own worth ; like  deluding themselves that  they are indispensable king-pins and without them , nothing would work , or that without their presence , life would be unpleasant for  people . 
Arrogance would make some husbands and wives disrespect their spouses, thinking they are doing their wives or husbands a huge favour  by remaining  married to them .  

Misplaced pride  says, "This is awesome ME! I am the best and THEY are all chasing after me!"
Awesome you who has achieved awesome what?

Pride causes delusion which makes some people think that they are " too hot and too desirable" and so everybody is  falling over themselves , to "seduce" them and win their love for  dating and marriage!

Acquisition of knowledge is essential because ignorance could be destructive. 
Pride has bred perversion of the benefits of knowledge, especially scientific knowledge ; whereby atheists  have  tried to hijack all scientific knowledge and "discoveries " and present them as "proof that there is no Creator up there!"

It is preposterous  to attempt to use things that have been created  to disprove the existence of the Creator.

" He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. Psalm 2:4.

Scientific knowledge and scientific "discoveries"  or inventions are  useful  for  modern living .
Science is not anti - God , contrary  to what  some people  think .
Science , actually,  reveals to Man  the awesomeness
