Faith & Conquest - Epistle to the Hebrews - Part 32

<p>The author mentioned the faith of Moses and his parents. Their faith became part of the history of the return of Israel from captivity. By faith, the parents did not fear the king’s edict; they saved the then-baby Moses. When Moses grew up, he identified with God’s people rather than enjoying the privileges of a prince. Moses chose Christ over the pleasures of sin. Moses did not fear the wrath of the king because Moses looked at God. By faith, Moses warned the Hebrews to observe the Passover to protect their firstborn from the destroyer. The author would then pivot to the people's faith crossing the Red Sea and the people's faith to conquer Jericho. The mentee of Moses, Joshua, led the conquest of Jericho. And again, it was by faith.</p>
