Remember the instruction you gave your servant Moses, saying, if you are unfaithful, I will scatter you among the nations but if you return to me and obey my commands, even then if your exiled people are at the farthest horizon I will gather them from there and bring them to a place I have chosen as a dwelling for my Name.

Throughout the history of mankind God has constantly reminded his people that if they are faithful to obey his commands, they will be gathered together in unity with one another and with him, enjoying the blessings of God that they were created for. God created us to as Ps. 133 says "Live together in unity". It is in this place he has chosen that he sends forth blessings, his mercy, grace and life eternal. If we turn away from this indescribably wonderful life and choose unfaithfulness, we will be "scattered". Isolated and alone, frustrated living lives of despair. Hmm- Faithfulness - Unfaithfulness, Obedience or disobedience - God's blessings or despair? That's what I call a No Brainer!
