Lesson 5: The Gospel in Joshua (Joshua 5, 14 and Numbers 13-14)
Related MediaThere are few characters in Scripture that stand out as nearly perfect pictures of faithfulness. Granted, God’s intention as he breathed His Word through human authors was to present certain details about specific individuals in order to best present His plan of redemption. But most of the time, even “good” men had their many flaws put on display. Not so with Caleb. This faithful, God-fearing warrior-leader is displayed in Scripture as picture of enduring strength and righteousness that should turn our attention to the eternal Almighty Righteous One. For New Testament Christians reading about his life, the gospel shines brightly. Pastor Daniel states, “The gospel promises that my faith will produce obedience which brings blessing.”
