Faith has great impact on the perspective and action. It was very interesting to compare Aaron with Moses in the event of golden calf.
Aron lacked the faith in the God, he only looked at the evilness of the people. He said to Moses,"You know yourself how evil these people are." He lost his heart , yield to a small group of sinful mobs, and led the whole Israelite into sin.
While Moses had great faith in the lord, he had no fear for the evil people, and called out ,"All of you who are on the LORD’s side, come here and join me.” And all the Levites joined him, and they saved the people from sin.
So have faith in the God, your faith will give you courage , right perspective and right action.
Blessings.
Bible verses,
Finally, he turned to Aaron and demanded, “What did these people do to you to make you bring such terrible sin upon them?” “Don’t get so upset, my lord,” Aaron replied. “You yourself know how evil these people are. They said to me, ‘Make us gods who will lead us. We don’t know what happened to this fellow Moses, who brought us here from the land of Egypt.’ So I told them, ‘Whoever has gold jewelry, take it off.’ When they brought it to me, I simply threw it into the fire—and out came this calf!” Exodus 32:21-24 NLT
Moses saw that Aaron had let the people get completely out of control, much to the amusement of their enemies. So he stood at the entrance to the camp and shouted, “All of you who are on the LORD’s side, come here and join me.” And all the Levites gathered around him. Moses told them, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: Each of you, take your swords and go back and forth from one end of the camp to the other. Kill everyone—even your brothers, friends, and neighbors.” The Levites obeyed Moses’ command, and about 3,000 people died that day. Exodus 32:25-28 NLT
