Exodus 9th chapter, 10th verse.
The text of Rev. w. A. Sundays
farewell sermon Sunday night follows:
For four hundred and thirty years
the Jews had been in Egyptian bond
age. They had made brick without
straw and barred their back to the
lash Of the taskmasters, and submit
ted to all the cruelty that power
full and heartless nation could inflict
upon those who were their vassals
and slaves.
God had told Joseph that He would
lead them out. Generation after gen.
Grafton had been born, matured to
manhood and womanhood and then
old age, and still God had not come,
until can imagine the people be-
gan to think that God had forgot
ten. But Gods schedule may not
harmonic with yours. He may delay
his visitation according to your pro-
gram, but God will always be around
in fulness of time.
And he appeared under the leader
ship OF Moses, and old Pharaoh
wouldn't let the people go, and God
was compelled to send the famous ten
plaques as evidence that Moses was
the chosen vessel. And it was during
these plaques that the conflict be-
tween Moses and Pharaoh took place.
1t was the plague of frogs. They
covered the land everywhere and the
springs and wells and they were in
the homes. If you'd walk down the
street, you'd step on frogs. Get up
in the morning and get out of bed,
and you'd crush a frog. Walk down
the stairway, and it would be covered
with frogs. Sit down at the table,
and you'd sit on a frog. Go to drink
water, there'd be a frog in it. Go
to jab your fork in a dill pickle, and
you'd stick it in frog.
Frogs Cover
Everything
The Bible says frogs we're every
where. so 7 guess they were on the
table too.
And so Pharaoh sent for Moses
and Moses said to him: When shall
entreat the Lord that He take away
the plague?"
And so Pharaoh, the old fool, an
swered in the words Of the text:
And he said tomorrow"
I never thought that argued very
much for his common sense. He
knew there stood before him the only
man In the kingdom that God would
hear, and he knew that God would
hear him, and he knew the distress
of tho people because OF the prevail
enCe of this plague, and yet he said !:
Tomorrow" 1t never argued very
much for his common sense, and yet
| don't think you have a right to
condemn him.
, Many say: 81 wouldn't have done
what he did" and yet you are doing
the same thing in a different way
God has been calling you to leave
your bondage. Instead of obeying
tonight still finds you enslaved by
the powers of the devil.
The Jew of old so wonderfully
reverenced God that they wouIdn't
dare to step on piece of parch
nent lest the name of the Jehovah
would be written on 1t, and they'c
show disrespect for any one Whc
would. And yet we trample it be
meath our feet with eyes closed ant
sars stopped and rush madIy anc
wildly on while God is doing hi:
utmost to keep US out of hell. De
spite that, seemingly, you are al
doing your best to get into hell.
In an estern state a number o
years ago an insane asylum burned
They took the inmates half pilt
away on the hillside. Whe the flames
were licking their former home int
ashes about 20 of them burst ever!
attempted restraint and they raj
down the hill toward the burnin:
building Before hands could be RAISED
to save them, seven of them had leap
ed into the flames and were incin
Grated. An insane man would do that
God Is Trying
to Save You
Then you have the audacity to 81
there and call yourself sane whel
you are trying to get in the flame
of hell and God is trying to keep 20,
out.
And he said tomorrow"
Where is the man or the woman
who can honestly say that "tomol
n row" has never interfered with hir
\ the thing that has no real exis
ence; the thing that will never dawr
Oh, you should have begun som
new work; you say, Il will tomoI
row"
You should give up some FOOLS
custom: you say: Il will tomorrow"
You should yield to Jesus Christ
you say: 81 will tomorrow"
There is no need for to consum
my strength and your time and spl
out words in analysis OF the thief {
lime. Take this for your motto
=. will not think of tomorrow. NJ
possessions are today. | will not III
myself to sleep promising myse
about a time that will never come
Tomorrow is the soft lounge upo
which multitudes lie down to the
eternal sleep. Tomorrow Is the de-
IFS opiate.. Oh, it takes an effort
the brain and of the will to say
To-day"
You ought to choose Jesus Chris
now for a few brief reasons: Firs
because by accepting Jesus Chris
now you would be relieved OF tn
burden of the sin in this life as we
and the dread of the future cons
ouences, and every man and woma
bearing that burden of guilt, {
yielding to Jesus Christ, would |
relieved of his or her sin, for thel
is not one who does not know tn;
to have one unforgotten sin in yol
life you stand in the awful peril
Gods judgment.

knows that you could forsake II
vilest sins if you would submit
God by faith in Jesus Christ. NC
