2 Peter 1:9 Tells us that you can forget that you’ve been purged from old sins or forget you’ve been born again.
2 Peter 1:9 Tells us that you can forget that you’ve been purged from old sins or forget you’ve been born again.
When Moses was at the waste place of Horeb, God commanded Moses to strike the rock with his rod of judgment (Exodus 17:5-6). Later at the sacred place of Kadesh, Moses was commanded to speak to the rock with Aaron’s rod which had budded but instead took Aaron's rod and struck the rock a second time (Numbers 20:9 & 17:10). In the former, striking the rock represented Jesus on the cross bearing our judgment to provide salvation. In the later, speaking to the rock with Aaron’s rod represents our priestly duties of confessing our sins post salvation (1 John 1:9). Striking the rock the second time caused God to not be hallowed (Numbers 20:12) and was sufficient to bar Moses from entering the promised land.
