Tag: King Og Defeated

March 10, read the Bible in a year in PowerPoint; commented

In Matthew 20:1-16 Jesus told the parable of the workers in the vineyard; God is always fair even when we don’t think so.

Deuteronomy 2 tells of the first 38 years of wandering in the the Desert. The generation entering the desert had died off and with the help of God King Sihon was defeated.

Deuteronomy 3 describes how King Og was defeated and how the Israelites conquered the land East of Jordan, but Moses was forbidden to cross the Jordan and enter the Promised Land.

By our standards the parable of the workers in the vineyards is not fair. Can you imagine a labor negotiation coming to that result? The people that wandered in the desert for forty years was not allowed to enter the land (except for Joshua and Caleb), and even Moses was forbidden to enter the land because of disobedience. God does not judge people the way we do. Below is a limerick I wrote to Billy Graham’s 95’th birthday.

He spoke to the millions on earth.

How much is a life like that worth?

In God’s eyes it’s the same

As that bum that just came

to the cross. Of God’s grace there’s no dearth.

Matthew 16:13-28. Peter made his famous confession: “Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.” Right after that Jesus predicted his death, to which Peter said “Never” and Jesus answered  “Get behind me, Satan.” Those were strong words. Jesus furthermore said “Whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.” Finally Jesus predicted his transfiguration.

In Numbers 21 the Canaanites were defeated in Hormath. The people kept speaking against God, so God sent venomous snakes their way and many died. Moses made a bronze snake, put it on a pole and when people looked at it, they got healed. (Does that remind you of a symbol used even today?) The travels continued.

Numbers 22 tells the story of how Balak sent for Balaam, and how Balaam’s Donkey behaved when he saw the Angel.
