The invitation of salvation is available to all. God’s way of bringing people to Jesus Christ is through the preaching of the gospel. The gospel is given, not only to be known and believed, but to be obeyed. God has entrusted us with the words of life. We have the power over death through the blood of Jesus, and we have been equipped, assigned to share this wonderful news to the world.
Here we see the results of disobedience to God and not reverencing His holiness.
In today’s lesson we learn 10 of the 12 spies discouraged the people by suggesting that they could not inherit the land promised by God. The children of Israel rebelled against God, and as a result, He decreed that they wander in the desert for 40 years, with their children entering the promise land instead of them.
