Despite the major setback, the promise was still sure: God would bring His people into the Promised Land. Of that there was no question! I think this is a very important insight. There was a delay in the plan, but God's purposes could not be derailed.
By God's grace, Arnold
There is no excuse for any one in taking the position that there is no more truth to be revealed, and that all our expositions of Scripture are without an error. The fact that certain doctrines have been held as truth for many years by our people, is not a proof that our ideas are infallible. Age will not make error into truth, and truth can afford to be fair. No true doctrine will lose anything by close investigation. RH 12/20/1892

PARABLE (by Joyce Griffith) Once upon a time a woman named Sue decided to find out about God by reading the Bible. She started with the book of Genesis. "Fascinating," she told her husband Sam. "It says God is very powerful. First he made the world and everything in it, and then he destroyed everything he'd made except for one family of people. Later He calls Abraham and promises to make a great nation of His son Jacob. And it happens. God can do anything." "So now you know that God is powerful," Sam said. A few days later Sue commented, "Exodus was interesting, too. It tells how God raised up a special people, gave them laws and promised He'd be with them forever. God is a wonderful leader." "A leader." The next week Sue reported she'd finished Leviticus. "And what did the book of Leviticus tell you about God?" Sam asked. "It's about how the Levites were supposed to be clean and pure. It gives all kinds of advice about offerings and what do to when one sins. I think Leviticus tells us that God is against sin." "Are we ready for Numbers?" "In Numbers the story is about the Jewish people walking around in the desert for forty years. They were rascals, those people were." "And what did the book of Numbers teach you about God?" "I think it tells us that God is very particular," she said slowly. "God cares about details. He really does, Sam. If He cared about exactly what each tribe should bring as an offering when the tabernacle in the wilderness was dedicated and all the other things in this book, then He must care about everything I do." "I think you're right," Sam said.

So as not to cross-post, I have made a comment in the "Does the Bible envision converted Christians committing sins of ignorance?" thread. It ties directly in with Tuesday's lesson, and I somewhat differ with the lesson's conclusions on this point. Blessings, Green Cochoa.
We can receive of heaven's light only as we are willing to be emptied of self. We can discern the character of God, and accept Christ by faith, only as we consent to the bringing into captivity of every thought to the obedience of Christ. And to all who do this, the Holy Spirit is given without measure. In Christ "dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete in Him." [Colossians 2:9, 10.] {GW 57.1} -- Ellen White.
