<div class="SSN_rnum">I. THE SIGNIFICANCE OF CANAAN.</div>

<div class="SSN_level2">C. What Canaan represented:</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. Liberty for oppression. "Sin shall not dominion over you."</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">2. Rest for wandering. "There remaineth a rest for the people of God."</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">3. Possession for promise. Promise into fact. Doctrine into experience.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">4. Variety for monotony. "Our soul loatheth this light bread."</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">Love - that passeth knowledge.</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">Joy - unspeakable & full of glory.</div>

<div class="SSN_level2">A. They sent out spies.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. Confusing report.</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">Timorous ten - we are not able.</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">Trustful two - we are well able.</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">Ten - cities are walled & very great.</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">Two - their defense is departed from them.</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">Ten - the men are giants.</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">Two - neither fear ye the people.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">2. Ten saw through the eyes of unbelief. Two looked through the eyes of faith.</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">a. The majority impeached God's word, power, goodness. (Too big for God?)</div>

<div class="SSN_level3">1. Restlessness.</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">No restful Christians in the wilderness (murmuring.)</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">2. Discontent - Not contented.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">3. Fruitlessness (Their battles only gain right to pass through land, battles of rebellion not conquest.)</div>

<div class="SSN_level3">5. Vacillation.</div>
