The word “argue” means TO PROVE, or to maintain, BY REASONING; to DEBATE, to DISPUTE; to PERSUADE (INTO, OUT OF); to offer REASONS; a quarrel; a reason put forward in support of an assertion or OPINION; DISCUSSION, PROTEST, theme of discourse. So, who are the one’s arguing with their Creator? God’s People are arguing with Him about what He has said and it is happening on a daily basis! You may be thinking right now, Jamie, I would NEVER argue with My Lord! Well, let us take a look at it and we will start with just one person who did it also.
Exodus 3:10-12 (NLT) shows us God talking to Moses, “Now go, for I am sending you to Pharaoh. You must lead my people Israel out of Egypt. 11 But Moses protested to God, Who am I to appear before Pharaoh? Who am I to lead the people of Israel out of Egypt? 12 God answered, I will be with you. And this is your sign that I am the one who has sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you will worship God at this very mountain.” Moses was PROTESTING or ARGUING with God about what He had just told Moses He wanted him to do, and what God said He WOULD DO! Then we find God still explaining to Moses how He will take care of the assignment that He was giving Moses throughout the rest of Chapter 3. Then in Chapter 4, verse 1 (AMP), we find Moses once again OFFERING REASON, DISPUTING AND TRYING TO PERSUADE God, “And Moses answered, But behold, they will not believe me or listen to and obey my voice; for they will say, The Lord has not appeared to you.”
