Numbers Fourteen - Rather Die

"So all the congregation lifted up their voices and cried, and the people wept that night. And all the children of Israel complained against Moses and Aaron, and the whole congregation said to them, 'If only we had died in the land of Egypt! Or if only we had died in this wilderness!'" Numbers 14:1-2, NKJV. #RatherDie
In the anguish and uncertainty that sometimes comes with following Jesus Christ in total trust and obedience, people in the scriptures often faced the prospect of death; some chose to rather die than obey, while others would believe until the very end.
Genesis 21:14-16, Esther 4:15-16 and Philippians 1:19-26.
