"Then Caleb quieted the people before Moses, and said 'Let us go up at once and take possession for we are well able to overcome it.' But the men who had gone up with him said, 'We are not able to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we" Numbers 13:30 & 31.
Two men believed God when He said He would bring them into the promised land.
A million others saw giants and believed they were bigger than God.
Because the greater number failed to trust God, the entire group was denied access to the best blessings of God.
What a terrible thing when Caleb and Joshua were forced to go along with the majority when the majority was wrong.
Happens today doesn't it. Christians are forced into social corners when the majority of unbelievers create laws with the purpose of disobeying God.
Even worse, in the church,when one or two people propose an exciting evangelistic ministry and the majority of a congregation fail to believe God can do a mighty work among them to bring the lost to salvation.
The promised of salvation is there, yet many see the worldly obstacles instead of Almighty God's desire to save the lost.
"And when those who heard it said, "Who then can be saved?" But He (Jesus) said, 'The things which are impossible with man are possible with God" Luke 18:27.
