Three And One With Pastor Dominic Dinger

Achan, Ai and the valley of Achor, the consequences of coveting and acquiring without asking God, the consequences of making a covenant without asking God and Jesus faces Pilate, faces Herod, takes the place of Barabbas is crucified, dies and is buried.

Joshua leads Israel to cross the Jordan. Joshua encounters the pre-incarnate Christ. Jericho falls as the people of God fight by faith and Jesus endures the events leading up to the cross.

Joshua is encouraged exhorted and enabled by God’s presence, and by God’s command, to be strong and very courageous. Joshua sends in spies, prepares the people and crosses the Jordan. And, Jesus prepares His people for His second coming.

Moses blesses Israel, Moses is shown the promised land, Moses dies on the mountain, Joshua in the new leader and the Pharisees, the Sadducees and the scribes all try to trap Jesus.

Moses on his way to Mt. Nebo to die as discipline for misrepresenting God, Jesus invites Himself over, gives a parable about faithful stewardship and weeps over Jerusalem because they did not know the TIME of their visitation.

Blessings on obedience, curses on disobedience, the Covenant renewed, including drastic discipline for walking away, including amazing grace for returning to obey and parables concerning prayer.

More miscellaneous laws, the heart behind giving our first fruits to to God, the law inscribed on stones as testimony of blessing and of cursing and Jesus miraculously heals ten lepers but only one returns to say, "Thank You!".

Common courtesy with property and with reputations, a clean congregation and a clean campsite, a list of laws touching almost every area of life and money; a wonderful servant, a terrible master and an abominable god.

Further review of the cities of refuge, laws concerning witnesses, principles of warfare, laws concerning unsolved murders and the parables of the lost sheep, the lost coin and the lost son.

Fellowship Feasts reviewed, justice at a local level, what to look for in the character of a king, the priests portion, avoiding abominations, the prophecy of a coming Prophet, and Jesus teaches on the priority of people over process.

Rejecting temptation to follow other gods, being separate and obedient in what we eat, in what we give to God, in what we give or restore to others, in the offering of ourselves to the Lord to willingly become His slave and Jesus tackles some tough questions concerning suffering.

The Law and love, loving obedience is life and strength under the Old Covenant, a prescribed place of worship to worship the One true God, and Jesus teaches His disciples to live in the light storing up treasures in heaven without worrying about tomorrow ready for His return.

A chosen people, chosen to be set apart through faith-filled obedience, faith that is fueled by God’s past faithfulness not by our own self-righteousness, a model prayer a friend comes at midnight asking, seeking, knocking, a unclean spirit returns highlighting the importance of being healed and sealed by The Holy Spirit.

Moses makes sure this generation understands the importance of sharing these truths with their children, reviewing the 10 commandments, reviewing the greatest commandment, reinforcing once again the importance of teaching this to our children and Jesus sends out the seventy to serve.

A review of Israel’s rebellion, a review of Israel’s wandering in the wilderness, a review of the faithfulness of the Lord and the unfaithfulness of the leaders including Moses and Jesus continues to teach the disciples about the cost of discipleship.

The boundaries of blessing, leaders appointed to divvy up the land, cites for the levites to live in, cities of refuge, laws of inheritance for female heirs, women caring for those in ministry, a young girl and an older woman healed miraculously, graciously, by Jesus.

Equal opportunities for the enemies of Israel, some tribes settling for second best, the Exodus from Egypt up to this point summarized and reviewed and Jesus miraculously heals and miraculously forgives.

Regular rhythms of worship in His word, regulations on keeping your word, your vows and Jesus, the Lord of the Sabbath, the fulfillment of the feasts teaches His disciples, His apostles, how to fight by faith.

Moab tempts, Israel sins, God disciplines, a second census is taken as they are nearing the land of promise, the ministry of Moses coming to a close, the ministry of Joshua is just beginning and the first five to follow Jesus.

Balaam the prostitute prophet, attempted cursing only coming out as blessing time and time again, a diabolical scheme to tempt Israel, a diabolical scheme to tempt Jesus, victorious over sin, untainted but not unaffected by the human experience.
