If you think that physical survival is the most important thing, you will gladly strangle newborn babies to stay on Pharaoh's good side. If you think that physical survival is the most important thing, you will happily become a kapo in Auschwitz, stripping the gold fillings and the rings from the corpses of your fellow inmates. If you think that physical survival is the most important thing, you will go along with any government policy, any orders from a man with a gun, no matter how evil. Do you know what a commitment to physical survival makes you? Evil. And that's no way to live. No. Our text this morning charts a different way forward. It shows us the path of fearing God. How will you live when you fear Yahweh? You will live like Bonnie and Sparkle did. We will look at how they lived in five different points this evening. But the bottom line is that even in the limit cases, even when evil is vaunting itself to the extreme limit of fallen human capability, even then you and I must live in the fear of God. And when we do, He will bless us for the sake of His Son who survived genocide.
