Last updated on: August 30, 2012 at 2:44 pm   By Dillon Burroughs

“If you see your fellow Israelite’s ox or sheep straying, do not ignore it but be sure to take it back to its owner. 2 If they do not live near you or if you do not know who owns it, take it home with you and keep it until they come looking for it. Then give it back. 3 Do the same if you find their donkey or cloak or anything else they have lost. Do not ignore it.” -Deuteronomy 22:1-3... Read more

Last updated on: August 28, 2012 at 10:42 am   By Dillon Burroughs

Deuteronomy 18: Don’t Copy

Last updated on: August 24, 2012 at 9:51 am   By Dillon Burroughs

“When you enter the land the Lord your God is giving you, do not learn to imitate the detestable ways of the nations there.” -Deuteronomy 18:9 In our day, plagiarism is a bad word. To copy someone’s work, whether in film, writing, science, or otherwise, presents an ethical problem that receives serious consequences when a person is caught. When it comes to worship, God offers similar advice: don’t copy. The nations surrounding Israel worshiped other gods, practiced spellcasting, spoke with... Read more

Deuteronomy 16: Follow Justice

Last updated on: August 23, 2012 at 8:25 am   By Dillon Burroughs

“19 Do not pervert justice or show partiality.

Justice for the poor, the oppressed, the marginalized, the hungry–the list runs on and on. But what is God’s view of justice? In... Read more

He also cares how we treat those who are poor. When we are blessed, it is to bless others. When we live in plenty, it is to help those in need. When... Read more

If a prophet, or one who foretells by dreams, appears among you and announces to you a sign or wonder, 2 and if the sign or wonder spoken of takes place, and the prophet says, “Let us follow other gods” (gods you have not known) “and let us worship them,” 3 you must not listen to the words of that prophet or dreamer. The Lord your God is testing you to find out whether you love him with all your heart and... Read more
