Life Learning Series

As far back as the time of Moses; according to His word, the LORD revealed God’s scheduled actions, as pertains to His most charismatic messenger. Among these actions is an interruption of the independent acts of struggling to understand the LORD. For, even though the Israelites, and in time, the entire world, too, had the law of Moses; still, we were struggling to see how it could flow through us, individually. We needed a Living Example, of a human sort. We needed an example that would consume both us, and our struggling for understanding of our place in the Kingdom of God. This is the declaration of the existence of that example, in and for all reality:

The LORD thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken; According to all that thou desiredst of the LORD thy God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the voice of the LORD my God, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I die not.And the LORD said unto me,They have well spoken that which they have spoken.

I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him. And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him. But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die.

And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word which the LORD hath not spoken? When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him. (Deuteronomy 18:15-22) The new Standard of righteous behavior is a most magnificent one.
