Spies on Pigeon Forge

In Numbers chapters 13 & 14 is the account of God, through Moses, sending men to spy out the land of Canaan to see what the land was like, whether the people were strong or weak, few or many, good or bad.

So twelve men went up and spied out the land.

When they returned they reported to Moses and to the entire congregation.

Ten of the spies said "The land, through which we have gone to spy it out, is a land that devours its inhabitants, and all the people that we saw in it are of great height. And that compared to the people who lived their Israel seemed to ourselves like grasshoppers, and so we seemed to them."

Then the people of Israel grumbled against Moses and Aaron and said to them, "Would that we had died in the land of Egypt! Or would that we had died in this wilderness!" And they said to one another, "Let us choose another leader and go back to Egypt."

Then Moses and Aaron said to all the people of Israel, "If the Lord delights in us, he will give the land to us, only do not rebel against the Lord and do not fear the people of the land. The Lord is with us; do not fear them."

And the Lord said to Moses, "How long will this people not believe in me, in spite of all the signs that I have done among them?

The men whom Moses sent to spy out the land, who returned and brought up a bad report of the land—died by plague before the Lord. Of those men who went to spy out the land, only Joshua and Caleb remained alive.

When we look at Pigeon Forge what do we see? Are we as one of the ten or are we as Joshua and Caleb?
