We learn why God's offer to bless them from a distance was both just and merciful, and why salvation has always been about restored communion with God rather than just avoiding punishment or gaining heaven. Moses steps into his role as a Christ-like mediator, leveraging the favor God has shown him to bring an entire rebellious nation back under God's care. They explore what "face to face as a friend" really means in Hebrew, why God calls His people stiff-necked, and how church discipline is meant to be restorative rather than punitive. When Moses boldly asks to see God's glory, the answer is stunning: God reveals His goodness, His name, and His mercy from the cleft of a rock that points directly to Christ. If you've ever doubted whether God would still be good to you after you've blown it, this chapter is for you. Like, comment, and subscribe for more. Chapters 00:00:00 - Intro…
