1. As sinners, we are under the CURSE of DEATH.
So you Wanna’ go back to Egypt?
Keith Green
You wanted to live in the land of promise,
But now it's getting so hard.
Are you sorry you're out here in the desert,
Instead of your own backyard?
Eating leeks and onions by the Nile.
Ooh what breath, but dining out in style.
Ooh, my life's on the skids,
Give me the pyramids!
Well there's nothing to do but travel,
And we sure do travel a lot.
Cause it's hard to keep your feet from moving
When the sand gets so hot!
And in the morning it's manna hotcakes.
We snack on manna all day.
And they sure had a winner last night for dinner,
Flaming manna soufflé!
Well we once complained for something new to munch.
The ground opened up and had some of us for lunch.
Ooh, such fire and smoke!
Can't God even take a joke? Huh? No!”

2. In His GRACE, God has provided a CURE.
3. God's CURE must be LIFTED up.
Lift Up the Suffering Symbol
Michael Card
They grew tired of bread from heaven
And of Moses and of God
And longed to live the life of slavery once again
So they muttered and they grumbled
And they whimpered and they whined;
With each faithless word, sank deeper into sin.
So Moses made a metal snake,
And nailed it to a pole
Sent out the saving word so they would know
That the symbol of their suffering was now the focus of their faith
And with a faithful glance, the healing power would flow
Lift up the suffering symbol
And place it high upon a pole Tell the children to look up and be made whole

4. We only have to LOOK to the cross and BELIEVE to have LIFE.
