Matthew 9:35-36 And Jesus went about all the cities
and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching
the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness
and every disease among the people. But when he saw
the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad,
as sheep having no shepherd.
Joshua 7:10-11 And the LORD said unto Joshua,
Get thee up; wherefore liest thou thus upon thy face?
Israel hath sinned, and they have also transgressed
my covenant which I commanded them: for they have
even taken of the accursed thing, and have also stolen,
and dissembled also, and they have put it
even among their own stuff.
Walls of Jericho fall Trumpets and Shout
Complete victory Like NY City
Failure at Ai Like Olar
Cause and Punishment for the sin of Achan
Joshua 7:24 And Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan the son of Zerah, and the silver, and the garment,
and the wedge of gold, and his sons, and his daughters,
and his oxen, and his asses, and his sheep, and his tent,
and all that he had: and they brought them unto
the valley of Achor and stoned and burned them all.
Babylonish garment, priceless
Two hundred shekels of silver, 20K
A wedge of gold of fifty shekels, 25K
vs11 Israel hath sinned, “”ALL ???””
Malachi 3:9 Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation. Again, “”ALL ???””
Joshua 22:20 Did not Achan the son of Zerah
commit a trespass in the accursed thing, and wrath fell on
“ALL” the congregation of Israel? and that man perished not alone in his iniquity. “”OTHERS DIED AT AI””
Psalm 133:1-3 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments; 3 As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.
Ephesians 4:1-3 I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, 2 With all lowliness and meekness,
with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit
in the bond of peace.
Ephesians 4:11-13 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
(13) Till we all come in the unity of the faith,
and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
