We had great discussion at Connect last night learning about the similarities that Moses and Jesus shared.
Both, sharing the intellectual ability of wisdom....people were drawn to both Jesus and Moses, they followed them and listened to their teachings. They both shared the attributes of humbleness and faithfulness as well. There are many more similarities that we discussed and many that we have not even covered. At Connect we always seem to spend at least 10 minutes on one question. The sessions are always rich with questions and various revelations that are gained from the scripture.
One of the highlights of last night's session was when one of the Overcomers asked why it is so easy for her to see all of the silly mistakes that the Israelites made when the Lord so obviously was guiding them, but that she can't always see things like that for her own life. Elder Hendrick Jones gave a wise response to this question, stating that even though the Israelites were brought out of Egypt, removed from the slavery and bondage....Egypt was still on the inside of them. That's also how we, as individuals act...It's not only about removing yourself from the situation but it's about your mindset after you have been removed.
In October, we move on to loans and credit scores with Bobby Fisher. What's your credit score with God? SELAH!
It was amazing how the both of them ended up in Egypt! God had them fleeing/ going back to a place of bondage and suffering. They both would prove to be the ones to bring a bunch of slave minded people to the promise land. Moses came and got the Isrealites and Jesus came and got us!
