Doctrine for Life
Had a wonderful time of fellowship this evening with our nephew and niece, Jonathon and Al Beeke, and their precious children. The Queen provided a great dinner. Dr. Jonathan serves as PRTS’s able and kind-hearted registrar and also is teaching a few courses for us with more to come. Everyone appreciates him immensely at the seminary.
“But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and hath followed me fully, him will I bring into the land whereinto he went; and his seed shall possess it” (Numbers 14:24).
Caleb is one of the few people of scripture where nothing negative is said about him. He, with Joshua, gave the minority report of the 12 spies (Numbers 13) and urged the people to take the land, trusting in the promises of God. He is said to have followed the Lord fully. So often we follow God partially, half-heartedly, or inconsistently, and as a result we often fail to grow spiritually and dishonor the Lord who has brought us out of slavery to sin.
In this video in the Hope for the Family series, I discuss what it means to follow God fully: https://ncfic.org/resources/211983.
