The Grands Letter

Dear Grands,

Numbers 32:20-23, “So Moses said to them, ‘If you will do this, if you will arm yourselves before the LORD for the war,
21 and all of you armed men cross over the Jordan before the LORD until He
has driven His enemies out from before Him,
22 and the land is subdued before the LORD, then afterward you shall return
and be free of obligation toward the LORD and toward Israel, and this land
shall be yours for a possession before the LORD.
23 ‘But if you will not do so, behold, you have sinned against the LORD, and
be sure your sin will find you out.’”

There’s an old saying: “You can’t do wrong and get by!” It’s doubtlessly younger
by far than verse 23 in our Scripture above. Nevertheless, it’s a truism! What’s
more, it is founded on the potential truth, “…you have sinned against the LORD!”

The plethora of instances in Scripture alone bespeak the truth that however
unintentional wrong doing may be, it will ultimately be uncovered and the sinner
will be held accountable. Such is worse when the intention is masked and denied.

Yet, notwithstanding the Scripture, men and women of all professions have done
wrong, believing against hope that they would never have to give an account. Yet,
they were wrong in what they did, and in the belief that they would not be found
out.

The tendency of mankind is to believe that their sins were small, too small to be
noticed, even by the LORD! Yet, while in this life some would appear to escape
being found out, there is a Payday coming where we will all discover that nothing
has been successfully hidden from the all-seeing Eyes of the LORD.

“”For nothing is hidden, except to be revealed; nor has anything
been secret, but that it would come to light. If anyone has ears
to hear, let him hear” (Mark 4:22-23).

Don’t be caught out! Admit and confess your sins to God! Do it today—right now!
He alone can and will forgive you!

Heartily in Christ Jesus,

(Dado III)
