Moses’ Sin & the Death of Aaron
Main Truth: Sin does not have the final say in the life of a believer!!
1. Moses’ Unbelief (Numbers 20:1-13)
Principle 1: Every Sin, big or small, is abominable to God
a) Indictments against Moses:
- He disobeyed God’s instruction => his own way & not God’s
- Did not honor God as Holy => “must we” / took credit
- Defied God in public
b) Lessons:
- Keep anger in check
- Obediance is not open to negotiation => Small compromise is the beginning of spiritual death
- Leaders are held to high standards => James 3:1
2. Edom’s Defiance (Numbers 20:14-21)
Principle 2: No Sin or circumstance can prevent God from accomplishing His purpose
3. Aaron’s Death (Numbers 20:22-29)
Principle 3: God’s faithful followers are redeemed from the consequences of sin by His grace
