DEUTERONOMY — Quovadisworld

CUT OUT THE PLAGUE SPOT

Cut out the plague spot. But that prophet or that dreamer of dreams shall be put to death, because he has counseled rebellion against the LORD your God who brought you from the land of Egypt and redeemed you from the house of slavery, to draw you away from the way in which the LORD your God has commanded you to walk. So you shall remove the evil from among you.

THE LORDS CHOSEN PLACE OF WORSHIP

The Lord’s Chosen Place of Worship. But you shall seek the LORD at the place which the LORD your God will choose out of all your tribes to establish His Name there for His dwelling [place], and there you shall come [to worship Him].

THE BLESSING AND THE CURSE

The blessing and the curse. “Behold, today I am setting before you a blessing and a curse–
the blessing, if you listen to and obey the commandments of the LORD your God, which I am commanding you today;
and the curse, if you do not listen to and obey the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside from the way which I am commanding you today, by following (acknowledging, worshiping) other gods which you have not known.

LOVE AND SERVER THE LORD

Love and Serve the Lord. Therefore, thou shalt love the LORD thy God, and keep his charge, and his statutes, and his judgments, and his commandments, alway.

NEW TABLETS OF STONE

New Tablets of Stone. At that time the LORD said unto me, Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the first, and come up unto me into the mount, and make thee an ark of wood.
And I will write on the tables the words that were in the first tables which thou brakest, and thou shalt put them in the ark.

MOSES INTERCESSION FOR A REBELLIOUS PEOPLE

Moses’ intercession for a rebellious people. For I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure, wherewith the LORD was wroth against you to destroy you. But the LORD hearkened unto me at that time also.

NOT BECAUSE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

Not Because of Righteousness. “Do not say in your heart when the LORD your God has driven them out before you, ‘Because of my righteousness the LORD has brought me in to possess this land,’ but because of the wickedness of these nations the LORD is dispossessing them before you.

REMEMBER THE LORD YOUR GOD

Remember the Lord Your God. And you shall remember [always] all the ways which the LORD your God has led you these forty years in the wilderness, so that He might humble you and test you, to know what was in your heart (mind), whether you would keep His commandments or not.

WHAT THE LORD DOES FOR HIS PEOPLE

What the Lord does for his people. He will love you and bless you and multiply you; He will also bless the fruit of your womb and the fruit of your land, your grain and your new wine and your [olive] oil, the offspring of your cattle and the young of your flock, in the land which He swore to your fathers to give you.

NO COMPROMISE WITH IDOLATRY

No compromise with idolatry. You shall not intermarry with them; you shall not give your daughter to his son, nor shall you take his daughter for your son;
for they will turn your sons away from following Me to serve other gods; then the anger of the LORD will be kindled and burn against you and He will quickly destroy you.
