David's sin. | would rather plunge my
fist into the fire than make light of
| Dayid's sin. Do you remember how
God took David from obscurity to put
him on the throne, and in his prosperity
he forgot God, he committed adultery,
and TO cover his sin he committed muir
der; but he was king, and who was going
to bring him to Justice" He would call
their attention 10 one text, BE sure your
Sin will find you out" There was no
judge who dared to pronounce the SEN
tence on David; no jury to bring in
verdict of guilty against David, who
dared TO pronounce sentence on David?
AT that time there was no detective 10
find him out, and yet his sin found him
out. Did not God find out David and
bring him to Judgment A prophet was
sent to David and he gives him the par
able OF the eve lamb. Of the two men in
one city, one rich and the other poor
the rich man having exceeding many
tlOcks and herds and the poor man who
had nothing save one little eve lamb,
and how the rich man took the poor
mans eve lamb and David said, "a man
hat has done that in my Kingdom shall
surely die" and David asked who the
man was and the prophet said, Thou
Art the Man" and this was the penalty.
IL will raise up evil in thy family and
sorrow shall never leave thy house,
David committed adultery and AmnOn
commits adultery with David's own
daughter. This il the strongest argu-
ment that can be brought to bear on men
that are living in adulJery that they will
the same kind Of seed they SOW.
IL tell you, SAID Mr.. Moody, one OF
the most unjust things Is the
way in which woman is treated after she
has been wronged by man, he just es-
capes as it we're, and holds his head high
in society, that black hearted libertine
walks down the broad aisles of your
church with his pure wife and his pure
daughter and the woman that he has
left and blasted her reputation, he has
dragged her down to hell distorted in
soul and body. II you think God is GO
ing to allow anything like that in his
Kingdom you must be under the power
of the devil nightly. If he brought
David to judgment do you think he will
not bring you to Judgment. God has a
law as well as Texas; you may escape
the law Of man but He will bring you TO
judgment some day. David co united
adultery and murder, ind adultery and
murder was brought In his family; David
rebelled against God and AbsalOm

him from his throne The reaping

remark once and the next morn

you on that; my father was a rum seller
