At Sinai, Moses wanted to know more about God. He had encountered Him at the burning bush. God's response was that Moses could not see or bear to see God's glory, so God showed Moses His goodness. What is good? Good is an attribute of God. God protected Moses in the cleft of the rock. Likewise, we need God's protection. Moses saw God's back, which was a manifestation of His goodness. We remember in Luke 18, the young man addressed Jesus as "good teacher." Jesus' response was that no one but God is good. Like Moses, we can't bear to see God's glory, but we can see His good works, the results of His working in the world. On Sinai, God replaced the tables of the Law that Moses broke. In His passing by, He proclaimed His attributes in the tables. Theologians impress upon us the simplicity of God. He is One, and He is merciful and compassionate. He gives us what we do not deserve. All redeemed sinners are equal before Him. In His grace are care, protection and providence. He keeps His promises in accordance with His covenant faithfulness. He is longsuffering, or patient and not hasty to exact vengeance. We do not have to provoke God to love us; we must be provoked in order to love. God is forgiving, of wickedness or iniquity, of transgressions against Him, and of sin, important because we are sinners by nature. The resurrection proclaims Jesus as the eternal Son of God, who became man for us and was crucified as a substitute in our place, for the guilt of our sins. In His death and resurrection, He ransomed our guilty souls and paid what we owed by His death. He rose, because death could not hold this sinless man/God. His resurrection is proof of our future resurrection, in which God will have mercy on us through His lovingkindness. How much does God care for us, individually? He sent Jesus in the triune covenant of redemption--all planned from eternity past for each one of us. ... See MoreSee Less
