DRIVING THE VULTURES AWAY FROM THE SACRIFICE

“And when the fowls came down upon the carcasses, Abram drove them away.”
Genesis 15:11.

Quotes: From Spurgeon

“What sort of vultures will there be?” asks one. Well, there will come doubts as to eternal things.
There will be questions about your own wisdom in giving yourself up to God. I hope you have been
strangers to such birds of prey, but some of us have not been; doubts as to whether there is a God to
serve; doubts as to whether there is a heaven, an eternal future, a blessed reward; doubts as to whether it
is well to give up this world for the next, or not. Drive them away, brethren! Drive them away! When
the birds come down upon the sacrifice, drive them away, as he did, who had all the riches of Egypt offered
to him, yet “endured, as seeing Him who is invisible.” This is what you and I must do; feel that it
is but commonsense, sanctified commonsense, to be looking out for that which will endure forever, and
to let these temporary things go, if it is needful that they go, that we may win the crown that fades not
away.
Possibly there will come to some of you younger folks fond dreams of ambition. Now you are content

Some people mistake the Leopard's spots for the leper's spots.

2 Kings 5:11- 16
But Naaman was wroth, and went away, and said, Behold, I thought, He will surely come out to me, and stand, and call on the name of the LORD his God, and strike his hand over the place, and recover the leper.
 Are not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? may I not wash in them, and be clean? So he turned and went away in a rage. And his servants came near, and spake unto him, and said, My father, if the prophet had bid thee do some great thing, wouldest thou not have done it? how much rather then, when he saith to thee, Wash, and be clean?
 Then went he down, and dipped himself seven times in Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God: and his flesh came again like unto the flesh of a little child, and he was clean.
 And he returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and came, and stood before him: and he said, Behold, now I know that there is no God in all the earth, but in Israel: now therefore, I pray thee, take a blessing of thy servant.
 But he said, As the LORD liveth, before whom I stand, I will receive none. And he urged him to take it; but he refused.
