00:00:23.480 five-star review on your favorite podcast platform. Thanks.
00:00:30.000 Jesus said, man cannot live on bread alone, but from every word that proceeds from the
00:00:34.480 mouth of God.
00:00:35.520 You're listening to Daily Truth. 0.99
00:00:39.740 Will I see Achan in heaven? 1.00
00:00:44.360 And I believe that I will. 1.00
00:00:48.260 The hardest part of the text for me to grapple with this week in my study was when Joshua
00:00:55.260 says to Achan, my son, give glory to God and give him praise and do not hide anything that you have
00:01:04.960 done. And Achan's response, what he says to Joshua, let me find it because I don't believe that I
00:01:15.480 actually have it in your notes, but it's in our text today. Joshua chapter seven, verses 10 through
00:01:21.760 26, verse 19. Then Joshua said to Achan, my son, give glory to the Lord God of Israel and give him
00:01:30.380 praise. And tell me now what you have done. Do not hide it from me. Now listen to Achan's response.
00:01:38.180 This is what was hard for me. It doesn't sound like the response of someone currently in hell.
00:01:45.180 Achan answered Joshua, truly, I have sinned against the Lord God of Israel, and this is what I did
00:01:51.560 when I saw among the spoil a beautiful cloak from Shinar and 200 shekels of silver and a bar of gold
00:01:58.500 weighing 50 shekels, then I coveted them. He doesn't just say, I did it. He's thorough in his
00:02:05.220 confession. I coveted them and then took them and see they are hidden in the earth inside my tent
00:02:12.200 with the silver underneath. I like what Charles Spurgeon says in this regard.
00:02:18.440 Quote,
00:02:48.440 seeing that he had made a full confession of his sin.
00:02:52.680 And I, too, am inclined from the reading of the chapter
00:02:56.200 to concur in the idea of my venerable and now glorified predecessor,
00:03:01.840 Dr. Gill, that is, John Gill,
00:03:03.880 who preached in the very same church a hundred years prior.
00:03:07.320 John Gill also held Spurgeon's opinion on this,
00:03:10.380 that Achan is in heaven. 0.99
00:03:11.440 And believing that Achan really was saved, 0.97
00:03:14.740 although he was put to death for the crime, 0.98
00:03:17.280 as an example for you will observe how kindly Joshua spoke to him he said my son give I pray
00:03:25.820 thee glory to God of Israel and make confession unto him and tell me now what thou hast done
00:03:34.200 hide it not from me and you find Achan making a very full confession it seems so full a confession
00:03:42.800 that if I might be allowed to judge, 0.99
00:03:45.900 I should say I hope to meet Achan the sinner 0.95
00:03:48.940 before the throne of God. 1.00
00:04:12.800 We'll be right back.
