Tried That - Didn't Work!

“And the Lord was going before them in a pillar of cloud by day to lead them on the way, and in a pillar of fire by night to give them light...” Exodus 12:21


“Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the Lord swept the sea back by a strong east wind all night, and turned the sea into dry land, so that the waters were divided.” Exodus 13:21

“I have heard the grumblings of the sons of Israel; speak to them, saying “At twilight you shall eat meat, and in the morning you shall be filled with bread; and you shall know that I am the Lord your God’” Exodus 16:12

“And all the people perceived the thunder and the lightning flashes and the sound of the trumpet and the mountain smoking; and when the people saw it, they trembled and stood at a distance. Then they said to Moses, ‘Speak to us yourself and we will listen; but let not God speak to us, lest we die.’” Exodus 20:18-19

“if only God would solve these three problems, then faith would flourish... – Exodus describes the very world Richard wanted! It shows God stepping INTO human history almost daily. He acts with utter fairness and speaks so everyone can hear Him. Behold, He even makes Himself visible!” * So why DOES God run the world the way He now does? “If God HAS the power to act fairly, speak audibly, and appear visibly, why then, does He seem so reluctant to intervene today?’” God has his reasons...

“And He said, ‘If you will give earnest heed to the voice of the Lord your God, and do what is right in His sight, and give ear to His commandments, and keep all His statutes, I will put none of these diseases on you which I have put on the Egyptians; for I, the Lord, am your healer.’” Exodus 15:26
