Explanation:

Moses was instructed to spell out God’s covenant to the Israelites. In Exodus 19:5-8 we read:

Now if you obey Me fully and keep My covenant, then out of all nations you will be My treasured possession. Although the whole earth is Mine, you will be for Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation. So Moses went back and summoned the elders of the people and set before them all the words the Lord had commanded him to speak. The people all responded together, “We will do everything the Lord has said.” So Moses brought their answer back to the Lord.

This is confirmed in Deuteronomy 7:12:

If you listen to these commands and obey them faithfully, then the Lord your God will continue to keep his covenant with you and will show you his constant love, as he promised your ancestors.

Israel broke God’s Covenant – So the penalties ‘kicked-in’

Clearly, given the nature of man, the 613 laws and instructions in the Mosaic Covenant were going to be broken, with serious consequences (Deut 28). History shows the dramatic consequences of Israel’s disobedience – much suffering. The prophet Jeremiah conveyed God’s condemnation:

They have … refused to hear My words and they have gone after other gods … the house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken My covenant which I made with their fathers (Jer 11:10)

I will heal their apostasy and faithlessness; I will love them freely, for My anger has turned away from Israel (Hosea 14:4)

I will remember My covenant with you in the days of your youth, and I will establish an everlasting covenant with you … Then you shall know that I am the Lord, that you may remember and be ashamed … when I provide you an atonement for all you have done, says the Lord God. (Ezek 16:60-63)

I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah – not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers … My covenant which they broke. But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put My law in their minds, and write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people (Jer 31:31-33)

This is of course the New Covenant given through Christ (Heb 8:7-13) and we note it was first promised to God’s chosen people, Israel!

Explanation:

Progress from the word progressive means improvement from the future but it may not necessarily mean physical movement forward while advancement is mostly about how it has changed from the past (contrasting the word old-fashioned) and is a neutral word.

When writing an essay, it is important to follow the structure in the essay graphic organizer so that you would be able to write an effective essay.

<h3>What is a Thesis Statement?</h3>

This refers to the sentence that shows the central idea of a paper or an essay and comes at the end of the introduction.

Hence, we can see that to write an effective essay, it is important that the thesis statement would be made to educate the readers about the purpose of the essay.

Answer:

Your Majesties, Your Royal Highnesses, Honorable members of the Norwegian Nobel Committee, Excellencies, Ladies and gentlemen.

I have a purpose here today. It is a purpose I have tried to serve for many years. I have prayed that God would show me a way to accomplish it.

Sometimes, without warning, the future knocks on our door with a precious and painful vision of what might be. One hundred and nineteen years ago, a wealthy inventor read his own obituary, mistakenly published years before his death. Wrongly believing the inventor had just died, a newspaper printed a harsh judgment of his life’s work, unfairly labeling him “The Merchant of Death” because of his invention – dynamite. Shaken by this condemnation, t he inventor made a fateful choice to serve the cause of peace.

Seven years later, Alfred Nobel created this prize and the others that bear his name.
