September 22 Deuteronomy 10:12 – 11:32

The themes of obedient living and love for God echo throughout the Deuteronomy passage and I Peter 1:13 – 2:10. The Deuteronomy text is part of the last speech Moses delivered to the Israelites prior to his death (1200 B.C.). Through obedience or disobedience the Israelites would write their future relationship with God; likewise, through our willingness or unwillingness to follow Christ we will receive either blessings or loving discipline from the Lord.
