Genesis 26:5 Amazing! God’s laws/commandments existed even before they were finger-written and handed down to Moses. Those holy, perfect, eternal and unchanging laws of His kingdom 🙌🏾🙏🏾😇 One has to wonder why God subsequently saw it fit to write them down, on tablets of stone. It’s probably because the Israelites had forgotten them after living … Continue reading The ten commandments existed before God wrote them for Moses
Acts 17:30-31; Exodus 4:24-26; Genesis 17:9-14 Once upon a long time ago, God winked at the ignorance of men; but now, He calls all to repent because judgement is at hand and His word is with us (Acts 17:30-31). There is no more room for excuse. Moses experience with God shows how serious God is … Continue reading Does God overlook small sins? Why did God intend to kill Moses before he’d even begun his rescue mission of the Israelites?
The ‘how’ is just as important to God as the doing of His instructions. Continuing willfully in sin after receiving the truth is abusing God’s grace and there are significant consequences. 🙅🏾♂️
Exodus 14:21-22; 26-28; Joshua 3:13-17; 2 Kings 2:8; 2 Kings 2:14 So many river splitting miracles in the Bible: Moses split the Red Sea; Joshua with the ark split the River Jordan to enter Jericho; Elijah split the River Jordan after leaving Jericho before being whisked to heaven 🌪; Elisha also split the River Jordan … Continue reading So many river splitting miracles in the Bible…

To fully understand the Bible, we need to compare scripture with scripture to reach a holistic understanding - Is 28:10; 2 Tim 2:15. When the New Testament uses the word “law”, what is it referring to? I’ll start explaining this using Col 2:14-17. The main question is - What is the handwriting of ordinances and are they same as the Ten Commandments?
Inside the Ark of Covenant were three things: the Golden pot that contained the manna, Aaron’s rod that budded and most importantly, the Ten Commandments! (Heb 9:4). The ark was the most holy item in the sanctuary, placed inside the most holy place. I mean it contained three pieces of physical evidence of God’s miraculous work, including the tablets of stone carved out from the very sapphire stone from which God’s throne in heaven is made (Ex 24:10; Ezek 1:26) and written with the very finger of God (Ex 31:18). 🙌🏾 Think about that for a second...
Matthew 22:36-40 The first 4 commandments speak to our relationship with God. The remaining 6 commandments speak to our relationship with men. How wisely Jesus broke this down. Two simple sentences that explain the whole ten.💡🙌🏾 Jesus indeed didn't come to break but to fulfill the law i.e. give us even deeper understanding of what … Continue reading Breaking down the ten commandments
