    This message looks at an excuse that the Israelites used for not serving the Lord. It was an excuse, which they hoped would exempt them from their own sins and their own individual responsibility; and the excuse was very shallow.

    To begin our message this evening I wish to share a story. “A farmer once asked his neighbor if he might borrow a rope. ‘Sorry,’ said the neighbor. ‘I’m using my rope to tie up my milk.’ ‘Rope can’t tie up milk,’ said the farmer. ‘I know,’ replied the neighbor, ‘but when a man doesn’t want to ...read more
