This is the answer to your question..It is obvious to anyone that reads the word with understanding and discernment that God knew from before the foundation of the earth that a man naned Joshua would lead Hid people into the promised land...

Yes, but he wasn't named Joshua from birth was he? Not like the way John the Baptist or Jesus was named from birth? So then, couldn't Caleb just as easily had his name changed to Joshua to fit into that event? And, besides, it is not prophesied anywhere in Scripture that "a man named Joshua shall lead the Israelites into Canaan" is it? I mean, if there is, please show me the chapter and verse.

I have shown that to you in Gods words.

You have done nothing of the sort. You have not given me one single Scripture to prove your point, all you have done is misrepresented Num. 23:19 and quoted the exact same verses from many different translations, instead of providing many different verses (from any single translation) to help establish your point.

You show a disregard for of prophecy and typology.

No, I just try not to read into Scripture what is clearly not there is all. If anything, that shows a far higher level of respect than one who tries to project their own worldview all over God's Holy Word.

Might it be that the name change was a part of Gods plan? Don't you think it a bit "odd" that he is considered a "type" of Christ?

He was born "Hoshea" (salvation) but Moses changed his name to "Yehoshua" (Yahweh is salvation)

And, besides, it is not prophesied anywhere in Scripture that "a man named Joshua shall lead the Israelites into Canaan" is it?

Exd 3:10   Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring forth my people the children of Israel out of Egypt

Did Moses fulfill this prophecy? Did God ever tell Moses that he would lead them into the promised land..or only that he would lead them out of Egypt?

Do you believe that God has foreknowlege? Do you think He was surprised by Moses disobedience?

No, I just try not to read into Scripture what is clearly not there is all. If anything, that shows a far higher level of respect than one who tries to project their own worldview all over God's Holy Word.

Actually I do not think you read Gods word as written I think you read into it what you want it to say..not what it says..
