Here Come the Plagues (3 of 8)
Faithful and True: Introducing the One and Only God

Exodus 7:1-8:19
If you have your Bible, please turn to Exodus chapter 7, Exodus chapter 7. I want to talk to you today from Exodus 7 and 8 on a message I've entitled Here Come the Plagues.
Now, there was a song that was written back in the day. It came out in April of 1972. It was released by singer/songwriter Jim Croce. It became a big hit. And many who are young people in our audience today will remember the words to this song because it's been around for so long. Here are the lyrics:
