Scripture: 1 Corinthians 10:1-13

In our quest to get to know who Jesus a prophet like Moses is, where do we go to find out? We are told in 1 Corinthians 10:1-13 where we can find it. We are told, “Moreover, brethren, I do not want you to be unaware that all our fathers were under the cloud, all passed through the sea, all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea, all ate the same spiritual food, and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them, and that Rock was Christ. But with most of them God was not well pleased, for their bodies were scattered in the wilderness. Now these things became our examples, to the intent that we should not lust after evil things as they also lusted. And do not become idolaters as were some of them. As it is written, ‘The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.’ Nor let us commit sexual immorality, as some of them did, and in one day twenty-three thousand fell; nor let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed by serpents; nor complain, as some of them also complained, and were destroyed by the destroyer. Now all these things happened to them as examples, and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages have come. Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall. No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.” What kind of prophet was Moses? The answer is in Scripture. We let the Bible define the Bible and in that process, the mysteries of God unfold and we get to know the Jesus Who is a prophet like Moses. Letting the Bible define the Bible means if we want to get to know the Jesus Who is a prophet like Moses, we study Moses. The only place to do that is in the Old Testament.
