Joshua 5: Urgent Circumcision&Passover, the Two Joshuas Meet - a podcast by KFUO Radio

Rev. Dr. Mark Birkholz, pastor of Faith Lutheran Church in Oak Lawn, Illinois, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Joshua 5.

The situation was urgent. Israel had crossed into the land inhabited by the Amorites and Canaanites. But the problem wasn’t Israel’s enemies in Joshua chapter 5; the problem was the threat of sin and disobedience.God has them make flint knives and circumcise the new generation immediately. They celebrate the Passover even though they’re in the middle of nowhere. These things Passdidn’t make sense from a worldly perspective, but from a spiritual perspective, the only thing keeping them in the land was faith in God. Joshua then meets the true Joshua, the Lord Jesus in the form of a warrior. Our success only depends on Jesus Christ; may we prioritize the things of faith with urgency over all the rest.
