About this episode
The world wants you to believe that all conflicts are ultimately misunderstandings. They want you to think that if we could just sit down, talk it out, find some common ground, and be reasonable, then all our troubles would melt away. The modern secular mind is allergic to sharp distinctions, to absolute antithesis. It wants to blur every line that God has drawn in creation and in redemption. It wants a world of gray, a world of compromise, a world where everyone is a little bit right and no one is entirely wrong. It divides light from darkness, truth from falsehood, life from death. And in our text today, we see this divine division in the most dramatic fashion imaginable. God does not broker a peace treaty between Israel and Egypt. He does not arrange a summit between Moses and Pharaoh.
