Deuteronomy 30:14-20
The Choice of Life and Death
Moses is talking to the children of Israel
and is laying out the plan pretty clearly.
It is not far off in the heavens or across the sea.
"But the word is very near you.
It is in your mouth and in your heart so you can do it."
See, outlined before you is the simple and easy choice.
You have life and good and and death and evil.
What do you choose?
God will bless you if you obey Him,
love the LORD, walk in his ways,
and keep his commands.
"Therefore choose life, that you and your offspring may live,
loving the LORD your God, and obeying his voice
and HOLDING FAST to him,
for he is your life and and length of days."
These are the final words of Moses to the Israelites.
God's Word is near- accessible- to them,
and it is not too hard to understand or do.
This is the choice of every generation-
obey and prosper or turn away and be exiled or excluded.
This covenant relationship with God comes with the weight
and responsibility of an active choice.
We as new covenant people are also called to make these
choices all day, every day.
It is simple- a step toward the cross
or away from the cross.
