Disobedience Bible Verses Warning

Glad you're back! Your attendance here at Daily Bread is always a pleasure. In the last chapter, Moses began to tell the children of Israel the things that will bring a curse upon those who don't live according to God's law.

The blessings are equally as wonderful as the curses are terrible, but you'll notice that there is quite a list of curses in this chapter.

As our intent at Daily read is not to re-write the Bible, but to help you understand it better, it will suffice to say that this chapter speaks for itself, really. In short, if you are obedient and love the Lord with all your heart, you will receive the rewards of righteousness. If you are disobedient and forsake the Lord, you will bring the rewards of wickedness upon yourself. It's as simple as that.

Disobedience in the Bible Truth
Disobedience Bible Verses Danger

The Lord doesn't spare in giving details when it comes to describing the curses that will overtake those of Israel that didn't listen to His voice and obey His commandments. I'll give you a hint: Verses 1-14 describes the blessings for those who are obedient and Verses 15-68 describe the curses for those who are not.

Wow! Why do you suppose there's such a difference?

Original sin and mankind's tendency to give in to temptation, make it so very necessary to stress the consequences of evil more than the rewards of good.

Because mankind yearns for temporal pleasure rather than eternal fulfillment, it causes many to stray from their faith, and that makes it important to emphasize and even over emphasize what the result will be of unrighteous choices and actions.

Disobedience Bible Verses Fears and Tears

Don't forget to give glory to God for loving us so much that He gave us the New Testament, where Grace and Faith in Jesus Christ is the law in our hearts.

Matthew 9:13

But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

So, if you're looking for equal lists of blessings that the righteous are rewarded for doing good and curses that the wicked are rewarded for doing evil, you probably won't find they are equal.

In fact, there is really only one reward that we should strive for, and that is eternal life with our Lord. And all the warnings of the curses you find in the Bible, are in hopes that nobody will ever experience them.

Disobedience Bible Verses Conclusion

Don't get me wrong now, this all doesn't mean that God was not merciful during the times of the Old Testament. We will be finding out about His mercy to the children of Israel a little more in Chapter 30.

Hurry back again as we continue our study of the book of Deuteronomy and another farewell address that Moses has for the children of Israel, right here at Daily Bread.
