I am well aware of the vicious cycle. (Ecclesiastes 1:10) What can be said, behold, this is new? It was already there in the generations long before us. Unless it is a fundamental reform, it happens constantly. To Israel, the word vicious cycle continues when you look at its history. The writer of Ecclesiasts explains the history of the cycle by saying that one generation goes and one generation comes on this earth. The sun repeats itself from the rising to the setting, and the wind It repeats itself over and over again, and all the rivers flow into the sea. In John 10, there are two voices calling the sheep God’s voice and the laborer’s voice. God’s voice always seems burdensome and annoying to Israel. The devil's voice is different.
The sin of Israel Israel's sin is that they do not listen to God's voice. With the natural ear, they listen to and hear even the smallest voices of the world, and listen and listen to the whispers of the devil, but do not hear the voice of God. Unbelief is disobedience Disobedience to God's voice is the way to death.
God's wrath is the enemy of God. Because of sin, man was cast out of Eden. The wages of sin is death. That is why Jesus Christ came into the world and died on the cross. Sin always comes with retribution. (Pain and sorrow, anxiety and anxiety, etc.) This text gives Israel to Midian as a reward for 7 years. This is the same as spending 40 years in the wilderness because of Israel's unbelief.
Repentance of Israel (John 10:4-5) If you go ahead after giving out all your sheep, the sheep follow them because they know his voice, but because they do not know the voice of others, they do not follow others, but run away. God's will is the repentance of Israel. .The purpose of discipline is not the destruction of Israel, but the repentance and restoration of Israel. According to the text of the text, true repentance is to pay attention to and begin to listen to the Lord's words that have been neglected.
God's mercy God prepared Gideon!! God who does not forsake Israel
Restoration of Israel (Rev 3:20) Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with me. It is because we listened to God's voice. This is the cycle of Israel. If so, where is our life now if we look at the history of this cycle? Fools are those who know but do not understand, and those who realize but do not practice. of victory.
