Discuss Deuteronomy 29 Page 2

Deuteronomy 29:29 The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.

The God of hosts, is in control over all nations. A covenant was given to the people of Israel to follow and obey. This covenant is for all generations to come. It is written for us also, our generation. Verse 15, it declares, this covenant it is neither with you that I make only which standeth here today, but also with those who are not here today, which means us, the future generation.

Verse 25~When the nations saw the plagues that befell the Israelites, they were to know it was because of their own failings and not some shortage on the part of Jehovah God.

Oh what a great lesson that is! Our Father is good to all BECAUSE HE IS GOOD! We are to learn from the Lord Jesus Christ everything we need to grow up into that man or woman that Our Father in heaven ever wanted us to be. It was always His desire, and always His plans, in all His dealings with us; when we didn't know Him, and now that we're just learning to know Him: He is high above little minds.

Verse 5: This shows what great concern that Jehovah God had for his people even though they disobeyed him. He made sure their clothing and their shoes did not wear out.

There was never a servant of the LORD like Moses, nor was there ever anything like all that the LORD did with Israel during Moses' lifetime; yet with the very wisest and most powerful words of truth, and all the mighty works of power, the people would still not repent, that they might believe in the LORD. Knowledge and understanding comes together with a tried proven character in faith and virtue.

"Ye have seen all that the LORD did before your eyes in the land of Egypt unto Pharaoh, and unto all his servants, and unto all his land...Yet the LORD hath not given you an heart to perceive, and eyes to see, and ears to hear, unto this day." How is it, that for the time that the word of Christ has been among the Nations, that there is to this day such ignorance and error in the things of Christ?

Hello Lu2677, nice to hear from you again :) Deuteronomy 29:29; Matthew 6:4,6,18; Ezekiel 8:12; etc.. In Moses "the secret things" has to do with how the people would eventually be punished severely for forsaking the Holy Covenant, in light of their inward defiance and disbelief. The Lord teaches us about our religion being in truth in the inward parts. Ezekiel was shown their secret sinful minds.

I 'm blessed at the conclusion of the story of Job, that I believe God refined His servant Job, proving to Satan that Job rather suffer with the people of God than to enjoy the temporal gifts for a season. However, after searching the story, I believe God knew Satan 's reason for appearing before Him. He knew why he was there. I believe He gave Satan a deal he couldn 't refuse, he took the bate, resulting in refining Job, and having more wealth than before, and evangelizing his accusers. Consider chapter 42:11 His children bemoaned him and comforted him over all the evil that the Lord had brought upon Him. Sometime we use other scriptures to refute others, not the case here, I believe. God never told Job why the suffering. Read Deuteronomy 29:29. There are just some things God hasn 't revealed on this side of Glory. About the author: unknown-whoever it is the same one who caused Moses to write the book ascribed to him and we have seen come to pass what he wrote of.

At this point Moses was reminding the children of Israel the wonders of God and how God single handedly fought for them.

GOD known everything and the things that he lets us know is for me and my generation for ever everything he says he will do it

The point is as Jesus said with man salvation is impossible but with God all things are possible St Paul confirms this when he writes For as we work out our own salvation with fear and trembling it is God who works in us both to do his will and good pleasure The restoration of God s kingdom on earth is the salvation of the world It is 100 the work of God Its universal for all men regardless of what men believe or do

Moses is talking about the New Covenant here Its different from beside the Old Covenant that was made in Horeb Sinai the ten commandments In the New Covenant God makes a vow to change men s hearts to cause them to walk in his statutes and he will accomplish his vow as per Ezekiel 36 26 27 In the Old Covenant Man makes a vow that he cannot keep due to his ignorance

This verse however doesn't mean that we should not probe into the hidden meaning and morals behind the deeper aspects of events in the bible.

There seems to be a bit of misconception, even within well tutored and perhaps thorough bred Christians about the knowledge of good and evil as the Bible states it in the book of Genesis, the beginning of the Bible. And really that shouldn't be the case. The truth is, in that commencement chapter and some few chapters after it, it was the sin that Adam and Eve committed that made them loose the garden that God gave them. As a matter of fact, prior to what is known as the fall in the garden of Eden, God did prepare everything for them, and there was a river from Eden to water that garden and it became, four rivers that watered it according to the Holy Scripture, Genesis: 1, 2, 3. However, despite that fall, a way was made available and prophecy about Jesus Christ was given. And therefore when somebody, no matter where that person is from, genuinely and truthfully gives his or her life to the resurrected Jesus Christ, that person automatically and spiritually becomes a new creature in Christ Jesus. “For as many that received Him He gave them the power to become sons of God, even those who believe in His name”, John 1:12. And from them, all the things that Jesus Christ has with regard to the covenant, belong to him, as such individual committedly putting his or her dependency on the LORD. In other words, he or she, thus becomes joint heir with Jesus Christ of Nazareth; the man between man and God. However, such a new specie must start his/her Christian life, with the milk of the Word and also ensure that he or she conducts himself or herself daily, in line with the Word of God. And that is why daily spiritual exercise comes into it, ( John 3:16; Matthew 6;33). And if, according to the Word of God, I’m the righteousness of God through Jesus Christ, then this implies I’m also the goodness of God, through Jesus Christ of Nazareth. That is where justification by faith becomes something that every believer, should and must know about and also put into daily practice. In other words, if I can speak, for instance, my life to justification, then sanctification, and purification through the Holy Spirit ministration become possible vis a vis justification, and that is through the weaponry of the God kind of faith, Romans 1:16,17. In real fact, it is far more than what the physical eyes can see. Also it is far, and far more than stickers that you put on cars or vehicles or on the front of your door. And that is because; these are issues that have the backing of the immortal and the invisible, and they are only for the discerned, Deuteronomy 29:29. Also, it should be mentioned that, the Wisdom of God, with specific reference to the Word of the Holy Writ is not, and never compatible with unrighteousness, neither does it have semblance with ungodliness. Therefore, as believers and saints, we must not get into being, as it were, devil's consciousness, otherwise instead of concentrating on the aspect of obedience, there would be the tendency that the devil is the one that we would put blame upon, as the cause of some of the problems that a Christian is going through. And yet, that may not be the case. And that is where and personal examination becomes necessary. Hence, the import of honouring and practising things that we've learnt from God's Word, that are being taught, and that the Holy Spirit is dispensing and bringing into our individual lives. In fact it is very important that we understand that Jesus Christ has already conquered the world, therefore we are not only saved, but delivered, blessed, sanctified and purified. And with that understanding, it becomes necessary that we know and recognise that we are not only Christians, but also soldiers, as it were, in the Army of the LORD, with the righteousness of Jesus Christ and His goodness at work, in and upon our lives. And that is, to the honour and glory of our resurrected Saviour. Blessed be the name of the LORD; for Him alone is worthy of glory and honour.

It's Love so divine that is mentioned, whose measure, mortals can liken to the act of humility done by our Saviour Jesus Christ at Calvary, on Gethsemane. Love, whose breadth and depth man is not in a post to fully decipher and fathom of how one who is owed offers to clear the debt owed him, and just merely writing off the death, Philippians 2:2-8. It is that love that constraineth Christians to go forth with the Gospel despite the prevalent challenges. A Love that impels them to shade shadows on points of doubt, Deuteronomy 29:29. Whilst fixing their eyes on Jesus' heraldship, Hebrews 12:2. It's Agape love! Compels us to go forth and counter Satan's stumbling blocks, even death.

I think that this verse is explained by Deuteronomy 29:5 and Nehemiah 9:21. Shoes were for their daily walk. They would have all that they needed to succeed and prosper in life, and they would have enough strength to handle all that they would encounter in the days of their life.
