In this episode of Bible Thoughts, Pastor Rusten considers the way that God leads his people like a father through the pillars of cloud and fire after the Exodus. This somewhat humorous and redundant passage reveals both the childhood of God's people and the Fatherhood of God. Children need instruction and here in this passage, God displays himself as a father that leads his children by the hand as they learn to walk. Once again, this passage reveals a reality that is ultimately fulfilled in the coming of Jesus who brings us into the family of God so we can call God our Father.
