Are you confused about how things should work? If you choose to answer my question then our convo can proceed. Which way would you like it to proceed? -in Jesus love, Don.

Re: Moses was unfaithful when called

Numbers 12:7-11 ESV
7 Not so with my servant Moses. He is faithful in all my house. 8 With him I speak mouth to mouth, clearly, and not in riddles, and he beholds the form of the Lord. Why then were you not afraid to speak against my servant Moses?” 9 And the anger of the Lord was kindled against them, and he departed.
10 When the cloud removed from over the tent, behold, Miriam was leprous,[a] like snow. And Aaron turned toward Miriam, and behold, she was leprous. 11 And Aaron said to Moses, “Oh, my lord, do not punish us[b] because we have done foolishly and have sinned.

Plz read the passage in Ex 4 in the context of time and then give an answer you think you want to give.8 With him I speak mouth to mouth, clearly, and not in riddles, and he beholds the form of the Lord.

Re: Moses was unfaithful when called

Don, I think you tend to take one scripture out of context and make a doctrine out of it that is contrary to the unity and spirit of the whole text.

Taken in context of Exodus 4 and other scriptures you depict Moses inaccurately.

Re: Moses was unfaithful when called

In Exodus 4:24-26, God is preparing Moses for ministry, and the incident with his son's circumcision serves as a lesson in obedience. Moses' failure to circumcise his son was an oversight or lack of understanding, rather than deliberate disobedience.

When confronted by God, Moses corrects his error, demonstrating his willingness to follow God's commands. Zipporah's intervention also highlights the importance of circumcision as a covenant requirement. This incident doesn't define Moses' character but rather shows his humanity and capacity for growth.

There is a difference between disobedience and oversight. Moses' prompt correction suggests a willingness to follow God's commands, and his obedience after correction is what matters. God's preparation of Moses for ministry involves teaching and this incident is part of that process.

Again, you excuse someone else for making the mistake.

Are you a pastor?

Ok, you have no answer.
