Old Testament: Exo 32.25–26

To read the Bible in a year, read Exodus 31–33 on February 3, In the year of our Lord Christ 2023

By Don Ruhl 

Israel had sinned by making a gold calf and worshiping it, believing that it was responsible for their deliverance from Egypt. When Moses saw it, he confronted his brother who was in charge, and then had to take action: 

Now when Moses saw that the people were unrestrained (for Aaron had not restrained them, to their shame among their enemies), then Moses stood in the entrance of the camp, and said, “Whoever is on the LORD’S side—come to me!” And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together to him.

– Exodus 32.25–26 

As time continues to move on in the Western World, we will be called upon to show that we are on the Lord’s side, and that will require that we show our allegiance to him in some way. 

Questions: 

• Are you ready to show your allegiance to the Lord regardless of the consequences? 
• How does it affect you when you see Christians violating the will of God?
