All right, my Bible in 365, brothers and sisters, we have arrived at the book of

Deuteronomy.

And boy, is this one special.

Folks, I have been waiting a long time to go over this with you.

And every single time I summarize it for you, I think that's like the fifth time, maybe the sixth time, I don't know, but every single time I summarize it for you. I think that's like the fifth time,

maybe the sixth time, I don't know, but every single time I summarize it for you, there is

something inside of me that just feels overwhelmed with immense sentiment because that is the

full expression of what we read in the book of Deuteronomy. Now let me just

explain this. This is really, really important. There is a lot of theology in the book of

Deuteronomy. You can derive tons of it from this book, and of course we do that. Again,

we're talking about the first five books of the Old Testament. It is, in essence, the establishment of distinctives that bring us to the very foundation for all theological conclusions that we come to.

And it's super, super, super critical.

But what I have to say here is that I want this to be viewed relationally.

As a matter of fact, we're going to step away from the discussion of theology for just a minute,

and we're going to talk about a very important relationship.

And that relationship was the one that Moses had with his people and one that cannot be

described other than a beautiful expression of the love of God towards his people.

Moses did well.

Now, mind you, he made some big mistakes.

And one of the most consequential mistakes that he made was so significant that it barred

him from being able to see the promised land.

And that is, of course, a very, very tragic story.
