Exodus 1
OPENING ILLUSTRATION:
What comes to your mind when you think of the book of Exodus? Burning bushes, parting the red sea, 10 commandments, plagues?
Due to the Popularity of movies like - The 10 Commandments, Prince of Egypt, and God's and Kings. American's typically skip right to the ''good part''
There is however much more to the story than meets the eye. Right out of the gate we see - Partial birth abortion, Racial turmoil, Gender issues, Government over reach, immigration issues, and the worst pandemic the world has experienced to date.

Notice first of all...
