Moses is still an important figure is history. He is the law giver. He led the people out from under slavery and forged them into a nation that is still a nation today. He wrote the first five books of the Bible. He was with Christ on the mountain. Moses is remembered and revered to this day.
Joshua was a disciple of Moses. Joshua was a warlord. He led the conquest of Canaan. A book of the Bible bears his name. But he is largely forgotten in history. He is just a historical figure with little current value.
Everyone has his or her part to play. Some are remembered, some fade away. One thing that makes us memorable is not just being right, but love. Love covers a multitude of sins. Love conquers human hearts. A preacher who loves God and loves the Bible but does not love people will be forgotten.
It is possible to be right, and to be all alone.
