#6

Deuteronomy 13-17 and Psalms 12 are the chapters tonight. I think it is interesting that so many people look at God in the old testement and they choose to see the blood shed, sacrifice, death, destruction, and so on. Then they look at the new testement and they see a God who is easy going, non-confrontational, a buddy Jesus if you will. Neither of these images are acurate. In the first 12 chapters alone Moses has repeatedly told the nation of Isreal that God loves them. That he has given them laws to protect them. That he has taken care of them like they were babies. Its amazing how concerned He is with there well-being. Amazing.
