The document urges readers to be ready for Christ's return by coming to faith in him through hearing the gospel, repenting of sins, confessing him, and being baptized.

Deuteronomy Chapters 22-23, Aramean/Syrian; Up In Heaven; The Jordan; Amen; Who did Cain marry?; incest; bestialitySabbath school lesson 5, 4th quarter 2021
Deuteronomy teaches that God commands people to love strangers as a reflection of His own love. It gives three reasons why people should love strangers: 1) Because God loves them and provides for them, 2) Because the Israelites were once strangers in Egypt, and 3) To treat strangers fairly and with care, as God does. Loving strangers involves having compassion for their difficulties, identifying with them, and ensuring equal treatment under the law.
God is Good - Relationships
God has always wanted the best for people. The document discusses how God provided a perfect home for Adam and Eve, Noah preached for years to save people, and Moses rescued the Israelites while giving Pharaoh a chance to change. It warns against being unequally yoked with unbelievers, as righteousness has nothing in common with lawlessness. God wants his people to associate and marry within his people. The document also discusses how the word "Belial" referred to worthless ruin in the Old Testament, and quotes scripture saying idols have no agreement with God's temple, as his people are the temple of the living God.
09 turn their hearts
God desires our conversion and repentance so that we may be restored to a right relationship with Him. God takes the initiative through His grace to call us to repentance, but it is also our role to respond by repenting of sins, turning away from evil, and obeying God with all our heart. True repentance involves acknowledging sins, feeling shame and sorrow for wrongdoing, and resolving to sin no more. God wants us to willingly return to Him and obey out of love, not out of force. He provides the means of forgiveness and transformation through faith in Jesus Christ.
04 an everlasting covenant
The document discusses the covenant between God and Abraham. It provides background on the names used for God (YHWH and El Shaddai) and Abraham. The covenant with Abraham occurred in three stages, where God approached Abraham, gave him a command, and made promises. The covenant established God's relationship with Abraham and his descendants. Circumcision was a sign of the covenant but was later replaced by faith, righteousness, and obedience from the heart.
05 the stranger
Jesus taught that the two greatest commandments are to love God and love your neighbor. Deuteronomy addresses loving neighbors in need, including strangers, foreigners, the fatherless, and widows. The Israelites were commanded to circumcise their hearts and not just physically, and to love strangers as God loves strangers by providing food and clothing despite having no needs of His own. God encouraged Israel to remember their experience as strangers in Egypt and to treat all people, including strangers and foreigners, with fairness and as full members of their community.

They can feel assured of the reality of judgment, as the Bible affirms it will come just as the resurrection of Christ came. They can also feel assured of its results, as God is good and gracious, and Christians who have turned from sin to serving God have nothing to fear from judgment but rather can look forward to their reward. Having faith in God's promises of forgiveness and help, and understanding the nature of sin and righteousness, allows Christians to approach the day of judgment with confidence.

This was a unilateral covenant where God promised something without requiring anything in return from humanity. God also made covenants with Abraham and at Mount Sinai with the Israelites.
