Proverbs 22:28  Remove not the ancient landmarks

Proverbs 23:10  Remove not the old landmarks

God doesn't waste His ink.  Obviously, God included these scriptures for a reason.  Israel was separated from the rest of the world, and landmarks were used for borders.

1 Kings 8:52-53  Thou didst separate them

Titus 2:14  a peculiar people

1 Corinthians 6:19-20   ye are bought with a price

2 Corinthians 6:16-17   come out from among them, and be ye separate

Today, landmarks are Spiritual

Hebrews 10:20  a new and living way

Romans 8:14 as many as are led by the Spirit of God shall be called the Sons of God

Exodus 13:21-22  God led Israel with a pillar of cloud by day, and a pillar of cloud by night

He wants to lead us today, just as he led them then.

Joshua 7:25-26  Achan left a legacy, just not a good legacy.

1 Samuel 17:45, 50-51  When David slew Goliath, he left a good legacy

1 Samuel 15:22-23  King Saul made a mistake, and just continued to drift farther and farther away from God, until his legacy was negative.

Lot's wife left a legacy that was clearly visible for some time afterwards.

Ruth 1:16  Ruth wasn't born an Israelite, but someone made a positive impression on her, and she was determined to live the rest of her life as a Jew, and she is in the lineage of King David and our Lord Jesus.

Esther 4:16  Esther went against the odds to do what needed to be done, knowing that is could cost her life.

2 Timothy 4:6-8  Paul said that he had fought a good fight; he knew that he was leaving behind a positive legacy.

Romans 16:19   vision yet for an appointed time

We have the opportunity to leave a legacy; whether we obey God and leave a positive legacy, or whther we are disobedient and leave a negative one
