Learn from the mistakes of others

Learn from the mistakes of others

Vs 5 – The Lord was not pleased with the Israelites because of their constant rebellion, murmuring and complaining.  They died in the desert and a new generation came from them to take the land.  Imagine you have the opportunity of taking your land and missing it because of foolish pride, complaining and rebellion.  

Vs 6 – The purpose of these examples is to keep the reader and us today from setting hearts and minds on the same things they did.  We do not have to make the same mistakes.  By their example we can learn valuable lessons.  The question is, will we learn from their example and be proned to repeat the same mistakes?  The clearest definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and thinking that you will have a different outcome.
