Jericho could not put its trust in the courage of its people to take the offensive, so it trusted in the strength of its walls to provide a sturdy defense. Even in the midst of terror, Jericho placed trust in itself, not the Lord. And so Jericho was “shut up.” It did not possess the courage to deploy an attack, but neither did it possess the humility to offer surrender. None went out from the walls to offer a treatise of peace with the armies of Yahweh. In one sense, their hearts were melted like wax with fear, but in another sense their hearts were hardened to their own destruction. So is the miserable state of all those that strengthen themselves against the hand of the Almighty.

Fear is always a sin (unless it’s a proper fear of God). But fear can also be a sign of being under God’s judgment, especially when the fear is irrational.

In this episode of Theology Applied, Pastor Joel Webbon teams up with Ben Garrett of @HauntedCosmos_ to discuss the Watchers, the Nephilim, and their theories for what/who is currently living at the center of the earth.

When Christ took on flesh, did he temporarily suspend (or “empty” himself of) his divine nature during the duration of his earthly ministry? Watch this short video, and you’ll be able to clearly answer this common question.

In Psalm 81:12, God responds to Israel’s disobedience by saying, “So I gave them over to the stubbornness of their heart, to walk in their own devices.” Once again, when a nation abandons God, God eventually abandons them. However, this “handing over” of a society to sin can actually represent both God’s righteous judgment on the wicked and his fatherly discipline toward his covenant children and those he has ordained to save. Remember, the father of the prodigal son did something similar when his beloved son wickedly demanded to receive his share of the inheritance before his father died. Instead of chastising his son, the father chose to give him exactly what he wanted and allowed him squander it all on “loose living” (Luke 15:11-32). Also, in Psalm 106:15, in response to Israel’s demand for meat in the wilderness, the Scripture expressly says, “So [God] gave them their request, but sent leanness into their soul.” Truly, sin is its own punishment. So does the current rebellion in America represent the righteous judgment of God or the loving discipline of the Heavenly Father? The answer is both.

It is not enough to obey God in part. The people of Israel witnessed God's deliverance of victory with the crumbling of the walls of Jericho, but they were then expected to secure that victory by putting all the inhabitants of the city to death. To often, the people of God are content to merely subdue sin, rather than mortify it. We cry out to the Lord, trust in his promises, witness his powerful deliverance, but then allow our sin to live. We are satisfied to capture sin, but unwilling to deliver the death blow. Instead, we make provisions for the flesh, so that sin might still be available to us at some point in the future. We must be ruthless in our individual sanctification to mortify sin. And we must be just as ruthless with societal crimes, especially abortion. Roe is dead, but the victory must be secured.

Senator Scott Wilk recently urged parents at the California Senate Judicial Committee to flee the state during a hearing on a bill that would cause parents who don’t affirm their child’s “gender transition” to face the danger of child abuse charges. *Ministry Sponsors:* *Squirrelly Joes Coffee - Caffeinating The Modern Reformation* *Visit squirrellyjoes.com to purchase your coffee today!* *Private Family Banking:* *Email at banking@privatefamilybanking.com or call 830-339-9472 to schedule an appointment today!* To support Right Response Ministries, visit: https://rightresponseministries.com/donate Subscribe to our Theology Applied podcast below: Apple podcast: https://bit.ly/theologyapplied Spotify podcast: https://bit.ly/theologyappliedspotify Google Play podcast: https://bit.ly/theologyappliedgooglepodcast *If you live in the Austin area, Pastor Joel just started planting a brand new church called Covenant Bible Church in Hutto, Texas.

The Church must pray, preach, and work towards God’s loving restoration of “The Grace of Shame.”
