Rahab

Rahab and the two spies are the main characters in Joshua 2. Rahab was a prostitute. She lived, geographically and morally, on the edge of society. Her house was located on the wall of the city and was strategically placed to lodge travelers. This was a prime location for her trade. Rahab had heard of the God of Israel and acted in faith. By hiding the spies she faced the risk of being killed if caught by the authorities. However Rahab knew it would take a step of faith to get her out of her present predicament. She did not intend to perish with the rest of Jericho. She knew that if she did nothing - this would lead to her destruction. No one can serve two masters.

I’ve been observing a current movement of what is being called “the prophetic.” Self or publicly proclaimed prophets are giving others “words from God,” as if we cannot hear from God ourselves. They have “powers” to understand mysteries no different than in A.D. 55, when Paul wrote to the Corinthian church. Apparently, when Paul was dropping a plumb line of principles regarding our spiritual pursuits and our character, in their culture at that time, people had the same vulnerability that we deal with today.  It is easier to function in perceived powers than it is to live in love. Love is the greatest power of all; greater than any miraculou...
