Einstein. ( 1 Corinthians 1 v 26 - 31 )

Recently a letter by Einstein ,called the'God letter', sold for millions of dollars, in the letter he wrote that the Bible was an expression of human weakness,filled with myths.It appears that from an early age he abandoned religion saying  that he had been deceived into believing a lie.Einstein as you know was one of the 20th centuries greatest physicist,although he was a bad speller.So the great physicist has spoken, which is sad, but there is nothing new under the sun,for we read ,''For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing''(1 Cor 1 v 18 ) The great philosophers of  Greece with all their earthly wisdom ,saw the gospel as foolishness. W Barclay wrote ,'' The Greeks were intoxicated with fine words; and to them  the Christian preacher with his blunt message seemed a crude and uncultured figure, to be laughed at and ridiculed rather than be listened to and respected''. To them the Christian message was foolishness,but to us who are being saved it is the power of God, and the wisdom of God (1 Cor 1 v 24 )                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         Jesus is way, the truth, and the life.                                                                                                                       ( John 14 v 6 )
