We see how Moses prepared his people not just for the Promised Land, but for the ultimate Prophet, Priest, and King \u2014 Jesus Christ. His words were full of care, warning, and hope, pointing forward to God\u2019s plan for redemption.  Then we follow a thread from the Old Testament to the New as we turn to Stephen in Acts 7, whose courageous speech boldly proclaims Jesus as the Prophet Moses promised. Stephen recounts God\u2019s faithfulness throughout Israel\u2019s history \u2014 even when the people stumbled \u2014 reminding us that God\u2019s promises are never delayed or forgotten\u2026 all before he is martyred for his faith in Jesus.  Along the way, we reflect on God\u2019s heart for justice and mercy, including the cities of refuge and the principle that punishment should fit the crime. These instructions weren\u2019t just ancient rules \u2014 they reveal God\u2019s care for life, fairness, and the well-being of His people, showing how justice and compassion go hand in hand.  This episode invites us to see God\u2019s promises fulfilled and to recognize that the same faithfulness that guided the Israelites is still active in our lives today. \u2764\ufe0f  For the full episode show notes, please go to https:\/\/mfahring.com\/deuteronomy-17-19\/ ","author_name":"Open Our Bibles Together with MFahring","author_url":"https:\/\/mfahring.com\/show-notes\/","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/39762310\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/item\/39762310"}
