Title: While Men Slept
Romans 13:11:-14
Knowing it is high time to awake out of sleep, for now is our salvation nearer than we believe.
- Like the mirror that says "objects may be closer than they appear"
Sleep is very important... We spend about 1/3rd of our life sleeping.
It can be dangerous to be sleeping at the wrong time
- Fake water truck crashed into marine barracks, killed over 240 marines, and injured scores of others
- They were sleeping
- Rules of engagement kept them from reacting (there, and in Vietnam)
- Why should we let "rules of engagement" keep us from preaching the word we have been given for this time and place
Story about arabs coming here and taking flight school lessons
- FBI could not put the pieces together: they only wanted to learn how to take off and fly, they didn't care about landing! That was the missing piece.
- They wanted to do this while America sleeps.
Today while the church sleeps, things happen again.
America sending ambassador to Vatican. Anyone complain?
American presidents knealing in front of pope in casket. Anyone complain?
Parable in Matt 13:
Good man sows wheat, and enemy sows tares "while men slept".
- Christ's object lessons: God never sowed a seed that would produce a tare. They always sown by Satan.
