Belief and Obedience

Luke 4:25~30


Introduction: Continuous unbelief and disobedience were the main reasons why God destroyed the Israelites in the desert whom He had liberated and led out of Egypt. Collective unbelief and disobedience were the things that made God angry at Kadesh-Barnea, which was on the border of Canaan overflowing with milk and honey. (The negative report of ten spies and the collective unbelief and disobedience of the Israelites.)

혻혻 1) The Lord said that He would carry the burden and do the work.
혻혻혻혻혻 - I will give you rest (Jer 33:2,3; Mt 6:33).

Conclusion: The choice of living with a heavy burden or living with a restful mind depends on whether you believe the Lord and commit things to Him or disobey with doubt.
