In this portion of Deuteronomy, Moses outlines the laws that concern the respecting of human life. We see some of the most controversial laws of the old testament over the course of these four chapters. Upon further investigation, however, we see that God seems to care more deeply than our sophistication; not less.

THIS IS PART 2 OF A 2 PART SERMON THAT BEGINS WITH DEUTERONOMY CHAPTERS 19-21. PLEASE LISTEN TO THAT SERMON PRIOR TO THIS ONE FOR THE FIRST HALF OF THIS SERMON.

Is belief in the Resurrection foolish? In this sermon, we examine the Old Testament's demand for a dying and rising Messiah. The disciples on the Road to Emmaus had their eyes opened and the apostles had their minds opened. Despite the rationale in the faith in the Resurrection, the ultimate realization of said faith is a supernatural work of the Holy Spirit (Luke 24:13-33).

As navigating through the decalogue, Moses expounds on the idea of Sabbath lifestyle and the honoring of authority. In addition, Moses places restrictions on the roles of judges, kings, and prophets. Upon deeper examination, we see how Jesus upholds all of these restrictions and even far exceeds them.

Though God promises eternal reward for generosity shown to the needy, He will revoke that reward for an impure heart. God calls us to have willing hearts when giving (2 Cor 9:1-7)

Moses reminds the people of existing laws and even expounds on some of them more deeply. Ultimately, we see how God has structurally designed Israel to be set apart and be wholly different from their surrounding neighbors.
