Randy Ford Author- THE GNASHING OF TEETH Testament chapter 19

For he heard the All Mighty speak about what He would do and how the king with a strong hand would let them go, and with strong hand drive them out of his land, and everyone of us fell back, as the Lord spoke, says He!   My name is JEHOVAH was I not known to….

Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob….

And He established His covenant, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their pilgrimage, wherein they were strangers.

To some hasty-waste komandos from Police Regiment 11, operating under the aegis of the HSSPF Russia-South, part of the regiment that marched through Belorussia with great destructiveness, the rude words “Ju-da verr-rrecke! Juda verr-rrecke” seemed very funny.

I’ve heard the gnashing of teeth.   I’ve seen the millstones they have around their necks.   So what are we going to do about it Lord?   So you say you’re going to redeem them with an outstretched hand!

He’s not circumcised, no he ain’t!   Or should I say “thank God for that!”

And, you, take that back to where you got it and go away.   We’re in the temple.   Temple people don’t talk that way or even think it.

Oh, please!

You’re something.

Why don’t you get off your high horse, and stop acting like God.   We’re all coming out of bondage, so…

Musically: it’s magic time again.   Bells go off signifying another winner.   Suddenly, there is a big change in the air.   And the aching is over.   We shall never forget.   Great things were expected.   It’s like the time the Pope came to town.   And after that so glad we all came.   Take a breath!   Aaah!

Throughout the plagues, the slaves continue their burdensome work.

Moses was fourscore years old and Aaron fourscore-and three years old.

Pharaoh his magicians, what will they do?

Moses and Aaron, or the Lord?

Moses throws his staff down.   The old snake trick.   We never expected him to repeat himself.

Wait!   You only have to wait to see him multiply his signs.

With all of the science of today, you’d expect him to come up with something better.   Like hot and cold water and electricity.

And a bolt in a grinder.

Like a two headed ax.

With bottled drinking water, we expected something grander.

Well, he’s rounding up his family.

Credit progress.

Credit tomorrow.
