1 | Did Moses seen God face to face? | Ex 33:20 | Makarios | 26901 | ||
Greetings Johnny! Its amazing just how fast a thread can grow in a day's time! :-) Searcher56, Tim Moran and Retxar have given some excellent answers to this question! And like them, I believe that Moses never contradicted himself. Those who believe in the Trinity (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) believe that the Angel of the Lord was quite possibly the pre-incarnate Christ in the Old Testament. There are many examples of the Angel of the Lord in the Old Testament and many saw Him! One such example is Balaam in Numbers 22:31 and David in 1 Chr. 21:16. In this way, God (the pre-incarnate Son of God) could have spoken "face to face" with Moses, as He did at the Transfiguration, and yet keep the complete essence of all His glory concealed from the eyes of flesh, since Jesus alone has seen the Father (John 6:46, Exodus 33:20). Blessings to you, Nolan |

Dear Nolan, You mention "it was quite possibly the pre-incarnate Christ in the Old testament" do you mean moses is not sure of who he seen at the time? He do not know if it is the Angel of the Lord,or it was Jehovah (KJV)who gave name to moses that the Lord free them from bondage? Moses was a great prophet he should know of whom he is spoken to? He must sure of what he writen. Nolan, I am not making argument or whatsoever, as a believer I can easily understand that bible will never condradict itself, but if I could have more solid explaination regarding this I am more greatful.That is why I am asking questions, like concept of hell in Old testament, Concept of heaven or teaching regarding the destiny of soul at the time of moses, I think those are important points in the bible that need an explaination(if there is) God bless, Johnny |

Greetings Johnny! Yes, I believe that there are important points, very important points, that could be discussed, my friend! However, I will never doubt the judgment of Moses, since he was actually there, and I wasn't! :-) So yes, I believe that we can be sure that Moses had absolute assurance as to who he was speaking with and just what he was writing.. However, many things in the Bible cannot be explained in a post such as this in a Bible Study Forum, and many things are beyond our comprehension. Yes, I or someone else probably could tell you what our answer, or way of dealing with a situation is, but it will always come from us, and not from the single most infallible source, my friend. So we can endeavor to do our best with what the Holy Spirit has entrusted to us, but that is the limit to our capabilities to answering some of those questions that you have. Blessings to you, Nolan |
