Crushing the Serpent(s)

A new generation is on the move toward the land of promise.  But this new generation is just as corruptible as the last one.  And their impatience and ingratitude, rooted in a desire for self-rule and slavery, invite deadly snakes into their midst.  It is only through the grace of God that the serpents that bring death are defeated.  And it is only through Jesus that the ultimate serpent that brings death is crushed.
