Paula Price Posted January 25, 2019 Report Share Posted January 25, 2019 The fact that she was willing to hid the spies because of what she heard about their God and how He dried up the Red Sea and how He fought and destroyed their enemies and other kings. Rehab believes that Yahweh is the one true living God and is powerful beyond any god that she knows. Her faith and fear of Yahweh is greater than her fear of the king and the soldiers. A faith needs to be deep enough to produce a change in ones life. Rehab's belief was deep enough for her to change her way of life and repent and accept Yahweh as her God.

Irmela Posted July 30, 2022 Report Share Posted July 30, 2022 Q2. (Joshua 2:2-11) What indicates that Rahab believes in Israel's God Yahweh? The fact that she was prepared to risk her life was an indication that she believed in Yahweh. What does she believe about Yahweh? She believes that the Lord has given the land of Canaan to the Israelites ; she believes that it was the Lord who dried up the Red Sea, so they could go across; she also insinuates that the victories over Sihon and Og were directly God's doing; she firmly believes that He, the Lord God of Israel is God in Heaven above and on Earth beneath. How deep is Rahab's faith? Deep enough that she is willing to give up everything to be taken out of her situation and go with the Israelites when they take the City of Jericho. How deep a faith does someone need to have in order to be saved from the destruction of a city? Rahab's faith was deep enough that she was prepared to defy her king and his soldiers, (if found out she would loose her life) and sent them to look for the men elsewhere, so that the men could escape and go back across the Jordan safely. She put her faith into action. From eternal punishment? We need to believe that Christ died for us, He paid the penalty for our sins, He took it all upon Himself. We need to believe and accept that we have indeed been set free from eternal punishment and in exchange have eternal life. Our faith needs to be put into action. We need to live what we believe.
