—Deuteronomy 1:34-40
by: Cheri Appel.
Moses was summarizing and writing down the Israelites’ history and laws. The new generation of adults would need to have all of this knowledge prior to entering and possessing the Promised Land. According to God, what qualified Caleb and Joshua to enter Canaan? And why, after all these years of godly leadership, did Moses only get a view from the mountaintop, where he would die and “join his ancestors”? Look at Numbers 20 for that answer. What can you conclude about leaders in God’s Army? What did Jesus say about Christian leaders in Matthew 18:6? Are we all held to the same standard?
