DESCRIPTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Major Ian Thomas reflects on the tragic story of a young man who died
prematurely and was buried inappropriately, using it as a metaphor for
spiritual misdirection. He emphasizes the importance of understanding
one's true purpose in life and the necessity of being aligned with God's
will. Thomas critiques the superficial teachings often presented to
young people, urging a deeper engagement with the atoning sacrifice of
Jesus Christ. He highlights that true life is found in Christ and that
believers must fully commit their lives to Him, rather than merely
existing in a state of spiritual complacency. The sermon calls for a
genuine relationship with God, encouraging listeners to seek the living
water that only He can provide.

CONTENT

My focus, my remarks this morning, about the story of a man who died too
young and who was buried in the wrong place. A man who died too young
and who was buried in the wrong place. In the first verse, the thirty-
fourth chapter of the book of Deuteronomy, Moses went up from the plains
of Moab, unto the mount of Sinai.

Speaking with genuine humility. All the attributes. It came to pass that
the theme of effect was almost shocking.

Immediately there arises within our hearts, in the fourth chapter, the
only thing he didn't do was teach them how to get it. Even in the day
when half drunk, for you are mine, he that has not the God, the Son of
God, hath not life. Presenting himself in the power, in the plain over
against the Red Sea weather, he bear your iniquities.

Even forty years, and ye shall know my. He says he will fill the hungry
soul with wine. And the average Christian cliches.

Without indoctrinating. The earliest day they indoctrinate until every
communist knows. We don't bother with our young people.

In Deuteronomy 1, verse 6. Verse 8. Behold, I have set the land again
anywhere else. In our reaction, repudiating the atoning death of Jesus
Christ. We have preached the blood of Christ.

In repudiation of the liberal theologians who told us that Jesus Christ
is sheer courtesy. Where they see that when the Lord Jesus died, there
was added to his. To be left there.

That when a man, a woman, a boy or a girl gives himself to Christ, it is
not to give themselves. Their personality. What to Jesus Christ did they
place in the hole that was dug for it.

To me to live is Christ. Ebenezer hitherto had the Lord. All he had was
a car when he is redeemed.

With the new motivation, all he can do is mobilize what he had. In
default and in clearly. In a way that they cannot.

Take the rod and gather thou. Not yet given. Of the living Lord.

And thou shalt bring forth to them water out of the rock. There to reply
to them. End of verse 10.

Hear now you rebels. I will fetch you water out of the rock. To whom he
ministered tired of the ministry.

If the record declares that Moses was a mean man. An egocentric man. Or
an eccentric individual.

If we knew that he was avaricious or disobedient or pig-headed. It would
give us an avenue of escape. But he was not.

The Lord thy God is with what you bring out of it.
