again with him. The “meantime” is being used for<br />
fruitless discussions about the prophet and what he<br />
said and for spreading destructive teachings. What<br />
tragic developments within the message!<br />
In fact, all these expectations have nothing to do<br />
with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The Lord Jesus is<br />
not mentioned even a single time in all of the things<br />
that they proclaim and await to be fulfilled. False<br />
hopes are being nurtured which will inevitably lead<br />
into utter despair. Please, acknowledge the fact,<br />
dear Brethren, that things pertaining to the Kingdom<br />
of <strong>God</strong> are not connected to any private interpretation.<br />
Now we are going to take a look at Moses and the<br />
commission given to him to lead the people into the<br />
Promised Land. He was not allowed to enter therein<br />
along with the church of Israel. According to Deuteronomy,<br />
chapter 34, he was only permitted to take<br />
a good look into the Promised Land from Mount<br />
Nebo, but could not enter in. Together with Brother<br />
Mehnert I took a taxi from Amman to Mount Nebo.<br />
We had a wonderful view, overlooking Jericho to<br />
our right, En Gedi and the Dead Sea to our left, and<br />
right before us was Jerusalem. How well I could<br />
understand how Moses must have felt! <strong>God</strong>’s ways<br />
are beyond our understanding. To the natural eye<br />
it seemed as though Moses had not completed his<br />
commission. We need spiritual understanding to respect<br />
the ways of <strong>God</strong> and His decisions.<br />
We do believe that <strong>God</strong> Himself will finish the work<br />
of Redemption, the way He planned it before the<br />
foundation of the world. The main thing is that we<br />
are ready to partake in the Word promised for this<br />
day, for true faith is anchored only in the promises<br />
of <strong>God</strong>.<br />
