The bible indicates that offering salvation to all human beings comes in stages 1 Corinthians 15:22-26. ALL will be made alive but each in turn:

First - Christ is raised from the dead to eternal life

Then - those who are His followers are raised to eternal life at Christ's return

Then - "the end" - those who have never become followers of Christ, or even had the opportunity to do so will be raised and enter into a period of judgment. "the end" marks a momentous time which, when finished, will remove death from the human experience forever.

Pharaoh had been warned that this confrontation would lead all the way up to the death of every Egyptian firstborn son... unless he humbled himself and submitted to YHWH. Each of the successive plagues upon Egypt would be an increasingly intense warning of impending death.

God intended for Moses to have face to face interaction with Pharaoh. What’s really going on is that through Moses God would have His demand delivered directly to the man at the top. But God warned Moses that Pharaoh would refuse to listen. Jesus gave us the same warning, “if they reject me, they will reject you", "you will be persecuted for teaching what I tell you".

The first portion of his long life was a time of preparation for the role God had in store for him. He was son of the Pharaoh's daughter with access to all the finer things of Egypt including a good education. He would have been a man with sophisticated tastes and sensibilities. In his early 40's he would have been at the peak of his career. A career that involves words and deeds.

Moses would only become the person God could use to deliver His holy nation after additional training. The great man of words and action needed meekness, humility, and patience. He would learn these traits through 40 years as a shepherd in the wilderness of Midian.

We should recognize, discern, or assess our relationship with... not only the blood of Christ, but also our participation in the body of Christ… which is His Church.

You have been brought out of, sin… and placed into God’s Church

The bible is very clear that each and every one of us has a direct, personal relationship with Christ, and through Him, you can go directly to the Father, and the throne of grace, anytime. Your access to Him does not go through the Church. However, much of what God does with you is done through the Church.

Just as Israel was commanded by God to march boldly out of Egypt… you have been told [and are being reminded today] to come out of sin. Sin is violations of God holy perfect commandments… but beyond actions and trespasses, sin is also a way of thinking and acting that has no positive future.

Sin has no future because through sin you have become separated from God… and separated from the tree of life… cut off from the potential of entering eternal existence. So, you need to get back into a right relation to God… but that means you have to leave some things behind.

Exodus is part of an unfolding story. It's a continuation of the Genesis account of Abraham's family. But their history is also your history.

Sound doctrines and beliefs must be based on the word of God... absorbing the content... teaching it to others... supporting those who teach... supporting the authority that is behind it... intellectually... administratively... emotionally... financially... and spiritually.

If we do this in the proper balance of word, authority, and spirit we will be growing in grace and knowledge.
