Joshua 22:21-23:16 War is averted because of the acceptable explanation of what type of altar was built and for what purpose it as erected. This altar as not to be used to worship in lieu of the altar/tabernacle at Shiloh. This altar was called "Ed" for it shall be a witness between the tribes that The LORD is GOD. This altar would remind all the children of their heritage as a monument only. Thank The LORD they all agreed and it was left standing and war was averted. Many years have passed, wars have been won and Joshua is getting old and preparing to die.Joshua reminds the children of Israel of the promises, laws and covenant of GOD which carry either blessings or cursing. Warnings about becoming ensnared by the people of the land and reminders of the prosperity to come by their obedience, it was to be their choice. What attributes of God does Joshua remind the people to consider?

Luke 20:27-47 deals with the Sadducee firmly concerning their bad concept of GOD and plainly stated that GOD is The GOD of the living and not of the dead. How does this affect your concept of eternal life? Jesus is careful to give notice to His disciples about the scribes and reminded them that they will know them by their acts.How does this instruction impact your conversation?

Psalm 89:14-37 allows us to know GOD, to see His attributes and traits, marvel at His blessings, grow in confidence that He will do what He promises. We are His children. He is our King.He is the true and faithful Judge.He will not lie. YEA!

Proverbs 13:17-19 Do you consider yourself a faithful messenger/ambassador from The LORD to the lost and dying world? Has GOD dealt with you about the matter of being a witness?If so, how did you accept the reproof and react to the encounter with GOD? We that are saved do not have a choice, we are to be ministers of reconciliation. Look at II Corn.5:17-21, confess, repent and do right.
