"See that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For if they did not escape who refused Him who
spoke on earth, much more shall we not escape if we turn away from Him who speaks from
heaven..." (Heb. 12:25)
A former park ranger at Yellowstone National Park tells the story of a ranger leading a group of
hikers to a fire lookout. The ranger was so intent on telling the hikers about the flowers and
animals that he considered the messages on his two-way radio distracting and switched it off.
Nearing the tower, the ranger was met by a nearly breathless lookout, who asked why he hadn't
responded to the messages on his radio. A grizzly bear had been seen stalking the group, and the
authorities were trying to warn of the danger.
Any time we tune out God's message to us, we put our souls in great danger. Let us give earnest heed and never refuse Him who speaks from heaven through His revelation.
