“But Pharaoh said, “Who is the Lord that I should obey His voice?”” Exodus 5:2a
This was Pharaoh’s reaction to Moses’ request. It is also all of Mankind’s response to God. As our Creator, God has given Man a summary of His expectations. It is contained in the 10 Commandments. He has written them on every Man’s Heart, as we saw yesterday, and He will write them on Tablets of Stone, which we will see in Chapter 20. As we survey History, one thing is clear, Mankind has said over and over again, “Who is the Lord that I should obey His voice?” But one day, God would send a Man, who would obey His voice, and then say to the World, “this is My beloved Son in whom I am well pleased”! His name is Jesus.
