Leaders and Resources

Numbers 34:10-27         1/7/2018

In this passage, Moses is directed by God to name tribal leaders who will divide the land. Eleazer the priest and Joshua assist him in the task. They name one leader from each tribe to participate in the allocation process.

Authentic Community

God’s purpose in creation is community. The power vested in the leaders of Israel to apportion the land points to a deeper truth: Everything we have as human beings has been given to us by God for the purpose community.

God gives men power to administer the Authentic Community.

We are endowed with the capacity to discern good. We are empowered to equitably distribute the goods of the earth. We are commissioned to assure justice between people. We are encouraged to collectively produce value for others.

You are Powerful, We are Powerful

It is written: ‘How good and how pleasant it is, when brothers dwell together as one.”

It’s more than a happy thought – It’s a spiritual mission. We are all called to this. We were all made for this. His principle intent is authentic community.

A trinity, God Himself exists as a community. We are most like God when we harmoniously function as a part of a community.

Connect in Community

If your spiritual walk is important, then get in a faith-filled community who sees it that way.
