Jesus vs Moses

Moses was a pretty great man. He lead the people out of Egypt and all the way to the border of the promised land. God did mighty things in him and through him. He is a hero of the faith and there aren't too many people that stack up to him. But he doesn't even come close to Jesus. Moses accomplished some pretty good things. He got Israel to their home here on earth. But he didn't get to go in himself because of his own disobedience. Jesus on the other hand made it possible for us to get to heaven by obeying His Father completely. 

I know this might seem like a point our author has already made, but he is just covering all of his bases here. There is no one that compares to Jesus. Not the angels in heaven or the greatest men here on earth. Not even Moses. Understanding the greatness of Jesus is central to the Christian faith. If Jesus is on par with someone else then we have to listen to multiple voices right? But since there is nothing or no one that compares to him, it simplifies our lives. We have one voice that we need to follow above all others. There is only One in the place of ultimate authority. There is only one Lord.

When my life reflects this reality, it goes much better. It takes so much of the drama and confusion out of my life because I have a clear sense of direction and purpose. The question I have to ask myself is 'How can I live out this reality today?'
