And now, Admonition brought to you by the Collierville Church of Christ.
In Deuteronomy chapter one, verse 43 we read this, So I spoke to you, yet you would not listen, but rebelled against the command of the Lord and presumptuously went up into the mountain. There are a number of times in scripture where we read about someone sinning presumptuously we read about it here with Israel. We read about it with the individual who on the Sabbath Day went and picked up sticks. This idea is someone who knows, they've been told specifically by God, don't do something and then they go and do it anyway. But they don't just do it, they do it as it were, shaking their fist at God, saying, you can't tell me what to do. Don't live this way. Don't sin presumptuously, there's a severe judgment that comes as a result.
