At times we are cautioned not to burn any bridges behind us. It is thought to be wisdom to leave a back door option for returning. Dr. John points to Israel at the Red Sea and teaches that the crossing was like a burning bridge. God was closing any option for Israel to return to Egypt. The way of faith is forward. We must not use fear as a reason to return to what was. In His mercy, God may burn our bridges behind us. God's Rescue Plan: We tend to think of deliverance as a rescue from something - a fire, an accident, a trap. In this 25-message series from Exodus, Dr. John will show that God’s rescue of Israel is not just from slavery, but to a covenant. Deliverance and promise are the themes of Exodus and the themes of our own redemption.
