Rev. Ingo Dutzmann, LCEF Ambassador in Boston, Massachusetts, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Joshua 7.

After six chapters of obedience to Yahweh, chapter seven begins, “But the people of Israel broke faith.” When his troops lose a battle they should have easily won, Joshua knows that there is a problem between them and God. In faith, he turns to God for the solution, acting as a priestly intercessor like Moses.

When they discover that a man named Achon has lied and stolen from God, he and his family are punished. God is always ready to forgive the penitent, but the punishments of the left-hand kingdom must still be meted out for the sake of order. Instead of punishing one family on behalf of the people, our Lord Jesus had Himself punished on behalf of all humanity, ransoming our lives as God’s precious firstborn and only Son.
