The Sin of Achan

“ 22  And Samuel said, Hath the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams. 23  For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry.”  1 Sam 15:22-23 . The history of the past is littered with people that refused to obey the clear word of God. From the garden of Eden, where our first parents failed on the command not to touch the fruit of knowledge of good and evil, to succeeding generations, many stories have been recorded of people that simply refused to obey the voice of God. And great has been the suffering of humanity as a result of disobedience. Man has endeavored to be wiser than his creator and in the process has alienated himself from his God. One of the greatest battle recorded in the Bible is the battle of Jericho. The Angle of the Lord (Jesus Christ) met with Joshua ( Joshua 5:13-15 ), and gave hi

Destroyed for Lack of Knowledge

Happy Sabbath! It is another week and I trust that God has been gracious to you in the last week. This week we look at distractions that keep God's people from obtaining a saving knowledge of Him. Just before his crucifixion, Jesus spoke with the disciples about the last day events. In His speech was repeated the warning about deception. In Matthew 24, the subject of deception has been mentioned four times. “4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.” “11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.” “23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. 24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. 25 Behold, I have told you before.” Matthew 24:4,5 11, 23-25.

Day by Day, and with each passing moment

Day by day, and with each passing moment, Strength I find, to meet my trials here; Trusting in my Father’s wise bestowment, I’ve no cause for worry or for fear. He Whose heart is kind beyond all measure Gives unto each day what He deems best— Lovingly, its part of pain and pleasure, Mingling toil with peace and rest. Every day, the Lord Himself is near me With a special mercy for each hour; All my cares He fain would bear, and cheer me, He Whose Name is Counselor and Pow’r. The protection of His child and treasure Is a charge that on Himself He laid; “As thy days, thy strength shall be in measure,” This the pledge to me He made. Help me then in every tribulation So to trust Thy promises, O Lord, That I lose not faith’s sweet consolation Offered me within Thy holy Word. Help me, Lord, when toil and trouble meeting, E’er to take, as from a father’s hand, One by one, the days, the moments fleeting, Till I reach the promised land
