Text: Numbers 16:1-40
In the movie, The Matrix, things seemed real to the characters, but they were not. A lot of times, we think we're giving God something He can use, but we're not.
Korah was one of the sons of Levi. He was cousin to Aaron and Moses. Although he was well known and held an important position, he became dissatisfied with his role. He became rebellious toward Moses.
A rebellious person is in pursuit of what someone else has and feels they're more deserving of it. They challenge the authority of those above them. It's tough to talk logic to someone like this. Korah felt God was on his side. Most people who are rebellious don't esteem what they're doing for God.
4 Reasons We Disobey God
1. Ignorance - we don't know any better
2. Disbelief
3. Disobedience - I'm not going to do it or refrain from doing it.
4. Rebellion - There's animosity between them and the one in authority.
When we're disobedient, God will correct us. Rebellion, on the other hand, will bring judgment on our heads.
Popular opinion means nothing to God. Obedience is what He values. When you give God obedience, you give Him something to work with.
