that there is breadth, width, but
not enough depth to the so-called

face, therefore it is necessary 10
make some resolutions.
He placed emphasis on three res
olutions using scriptural back
ground: 1st, Serve the Lord,
Joshua PALS, And if it seem evil
unto you to serve the Lord, choose
you this day whom we will serve;
whether the gods which your
fathers served that were on the
other side of the flood, or the gods
of the Amorites, in whose land we
dwell: but as for me and my house
we will serve the Lord"
Second: stand with God" Ruth
ITO, and third and last, "Obey
God" Acts 5:29, Then Peter and
the other apostles answered and
said, We ought to obey God rather
than man."
