Abraham Lincoln
Godless leaders show contempt for the worship of God.
Worthless - They did not know the LORD.
These who were set apart to serve him did’t even know the one they were to serve.
They were taking the Lord’s offering for themselves.
They were taking the Lord’s offering for themselves.
Their practices violated almost every biblical standard imaginable.
They were demanding the Lord’s portion and ignoring the lord’s commandments.
they were even threatening the people in the process.

Application
What does your worship communicate about the worth of your God?
If I am an unbeliever and I watch Rehobeth Baptist Church worship what conclusions do I draw about the God of this people.
How do you handle correction?
Will you listen to the truth even when God brings it to you through human vocal cords?
Will you determine today to use the position God has given to heal people not hurt them?
Will you equip people not exploit them?
Will you serve people not assail them?
Will you love people not leverage them?
