Homilist Joshua 24:15 And if it seem evil to you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom you will serve… I. ALL MEN HAVE SOME MORAL MASTER. The moral monarch of the soul is the object of its supreme regard; the predominant love evermore sways the soul. II. THE MORAL MASTER IS ALWAYS THE OBJECT OF CHOICE. No soul is coerced into the service of any object. III. THE SOONER MEN CHOOSE THEIR MORAL MASTER THE BETTER. 1. Because a wrong moral master will ruin you. 2. Because there is only one right moral Master — the Supreme One. (Homilist.) Parallel Verses KJV: And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. |
