<TITLE>08. Par 28-32</TITLE>L-28 It was Moses. Going down an old familiar path one morning as he begin to think on his ways. God had called him to be a deliverer of Israel. What did he do? Went in his own way, instead of taking God's way, and murdered a man. And when he was thinking on his ways, and what a failure he had been, and living in luxury, had traded the ministry of the Lord for a sheepherder's job...
No doubt somewhere down over the air waves, or in this building tonight, I'm preaching to a many a man and woman who God called into the ministry, and took an easier road, because it had more money in it. There wasn't... You're herding sheep when you ought to be preaching the Gospel. So easy to take that way of luxury.

L-29 But while Moses was thinking on his way, a burning bush appeared in the way.
God, send burning bushes tonight to every man or woman that would dare to think on their way. Take inventory of your life, how you living. What if Jesus would come tonight? Think on the ways.
It was Peter who was standing, warming himself by the enemy's fire, cursing, denying Jesus. When he heard that old rooster crow the third time, it made him think on his ways, the way he'd been treating Jesus. He'd been called to the ministry. He'd been called to serve God. And it took a rooster to make him think on his ways.

L-30 Brother, sister, tonight, it's about cock crowing time for a lot of us, that would make us wake up and think on our ways, the way that we are treating the Lord Jesus. In this new modern age of all self-styled and polished religions, it's time to think on our ways and come back to the old pathway that Jesus Christ trod when He was here on earth, a way of sacrifice. Think on our ways.
There was Judas Iscariot. When the high priest begin to count out thirty pieces of silver... And when he heard the tinkling of that silver, Judas thought on his ways, how that he had sold out Jesus for thirty pieces of silver, took a rope and hung himself.

L-31 I wonder tonight, if many people here and listening tonight, hasn't cheated their neighbor just a little bit, done a little crooked deal. I pray that if that be the case, that you'll hear the tinkling of that money, till it'll send you to your knees of repentance. And many of you hold out God's part, spend it for things out here, for whiskey, tobacco, cigarettes, gasoline to ride around on, when it belongs in the house of the Lord. It's your solemn duty to give it. Think on your ways. Think about it. Thirty pieces of silver...
It was a Roman soldier, after he had pierced His side and had seen water and Blood, seen the sun go down in the middle of the day, and the rocks rent out from the mountains. It was after he saw this that he begin to think on his ways, and smote himself on the chest, and cried, "Truly, that was the Son of God." Waited a long time, but he was thinking on his ways.

L-32 I wonder tonight in radio-land, and this visible audience, if many of you aren't thinking on your ways, the things that you have done, and the things that you've left undone. It's just as great to leave undone, as it is to do something that's wrong. "For he that knoweth to do good and doeth it not, to him it's sin." If you're thinking on your ways, there's one thing that I'm sure I can introduce to you. As the poet said,
 There is a fountain filled with blood,
 Drawn from Immanuel's veins,
 Where sinners plunge beneath the flood,
 Lose all their guilty stain;
 That dying thief rejoiced to see
 That fountain in his day;
 There may I, though vile as he,
 Wash all my sins away.
The old Salvation Army song. They used to sing this:
 Oh, precious is that flow,
 That makes me white as snow;
 No other fount I know,
 Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
