Text: Exodus 10:27-11:8
Synopsis: The first nine plagues sent against Pharaoh and Egypt were the river turning to blood, frogs, lice, flies, murrain of beasts, boils, hail, locusts, and darkness. It was an almost comical situation up to this point - though annoying, none of the plagues was life-threatening. However, after Pharaoh grew tired of the game everything turned deadly serious. Pharaoh chose to discontinue the contact with Moses, resulting in the devastating plague of the deaths of the firstborn children.
Some “play church” today, much like Pharaoh did with Moses, for a time. It is dangerous, however, to reach a place where you no longer want to see or hear the preached Word from the man of God.
