    February 5 - Leviticus
    2026/02/05
    Pastor takes us on an exploration of the Book of Leviticus, a book that many would choose as their least favorite book of the Bible. However, what we will see in Leviticus is the foundation of true worship, the foundation of God's plan for the world and His people. This book may surprise you - as you see it's filled with some really good instruction. Exodus speaks of WHERE to worship God. Leviticus speaks of HOW to worship God. (Sacrifices and Festivals). The life of God's people revolved around worship and Leviticus sets forth life time patterns of how to worship God. Differences between Israel's Worship and the worship of other nations: - Sacrifices for the Israelites had nothing to do with discerning the future. Instead they were all about an innocent victim dying to cover sin. A foreshadowing of what Jesus would do on the cross. He was the perfect, innocent Lamb of God who shed His blood to cover our sin. - Sacrifices for the Israelites were linked to God's Covenantal relationship. He keeps His word. He keeps His promises. - God's moral and ethical nature demands holiness. Holiness was not a part of the ancient worship culture. We, today, often do not see God as holy. We read the importance of lifestyle and living in a way that honors God. The Six Foundational Blocks in Leviticus: - Worship - daily and continuous, joyful and God-directed, and specific directions to the priests on how to worship. - Sacrifice - is at the heart of genuine, biblical worship and points right to the sacrifice of Christ. We sin and we need a Savior to cover our sin. Sacrifice is God's preview to what Jesus will do because our sin demands restitution, something to shed its blood to pay for our sins. Jesus is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. He paid the price for all. - Penitence - come before God humbly admitting our sin. Recognizing our sin. - Priesthood - God placed intermediaries - priests - mediators - that went to God on behalf of the people. They had to make sacrifice to cover their sin before going to God in the Holy of Holies. - Blood - shedding of blood brings forgiveness. They were not to eat or drink blood as it was sacred. Life is in the blood. Blood is atoning - through the blood of Jesus. - Lifestyle - Biblical faith is more than intellectual knowledge. It is a way of life. God shares His plan for how we live, our relationship with Him, and the right way to live - a God-pleasing way. We want to live His way because it is the best way. When we are caught up in sin and not living how God desires that we live we can also know that the Lord wants us back and He says, "There is no one that I cannot change! There is no one outside the reach of My love and My mercy and My grace." He alone gives us the strength to change our ways, to turn back to Him in repentance. Covered in the Blood of His Son, Jesus, our sins are forgiven and we are changed and our life-styles are changed. Because we understand that we are saved, we want to live as God has told us to live. Pastor ends with a study of the Festivals in Leviticus 16 & 23: Passover - celebrate deliverance from Egypt when they put the blood of a lamb on their doors and God passed over and freed them. Jesus went to the cross at Passover - He is the Passover Lamb slain for us. Firstfruits - The first of the crops are offered to God specifically on the day after the first Sabbath of Passover. Jesus died on Passover and he rose on the Day of FirstFruits. Jesus is the Firstfruit of God. Weeks - celebrated 50 days after Passover. It is the time when the harvest is brought in. It's a time of celebration. It is our day of Pentecost - it is God saying He is bringing in the harvest through His Holy Spirit. Trumpets - the Jewish New Year - a reminder that we are a new creation in Christ. Atonement - the high priest brings out 2 goats. One is slain to cover the sins of God's people. The other goat "carries away the sins" of the people as it is let go. Tabernacles - reminder of how their ancestors were lead through the wilderness and protected for 40 years as they waited to come to the promised land. This is a picture of the final harvest when Christ returns. God will fulfill everything He has said. Leviticus points to the Lord Jesus - His first coming and His final appearing.

  • January 29 - Exodus (Part 2)

    January 29 - Exodus (Part 2)
    2026/01/29

    This class continues our study of Exodus.

    Pastor opens with a look at the Red Sea and where it is traditionally thought that the Israelite crossing took place. But then shares new information that points to a possible different location. It's an exciting look at circumstantial evidence like trade routes, to a peninsula in the Gulf of Aqaba, an underwater "land bridge," and the possibility of having discovered that Mt. Sinai maybe isn't where we traditionally thought it was. Pastor shares discoveries of interesting artifacts, petroglyphs, circular stone patterns which may be the possible remains for the Israelite camps in the area, 12 pillars which may possibly be 1 for each tribe and more. They are things that really bring a fresh look to this familiar story of the exodus.

    As we continue with the story of the exodus we see the Israelites beginning to complain and God provides them with manna, food for their daily lives.

    Pastor goes on to expose the "on the third day" words that are often read throughout the Bible. "On the third day" God showed the Isrealites fire on the mountain. From the mountain they heard trumpets and they heard God speaking which caused them to become very fearful. They tell Moses to go to the top of the mountain to meet with God. This is when Moses received the 10 commandments.

    Exodus 20 - the first words of the commandments are, "I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery." Some people see this as the first commandment. There are several numberings of the 10 commandments. The important thing is not how they are numbered, but rather that we listen to them.

    Moses is on the mountain for 40 days and while he's up there the people, with Aaron's help, build a golden calf harkening back to the Gods of Egypt while they were in slavery. God wants us molded and shaped not by the culture or it's influence, but by His Word, His Spirit and His Truth.

    After the golden calf was completed they have a festival. The story is found in Exodus 32. And Moses comes down and sees this party they are having in celebration of the Golden Calf. Moses throws down the tablets and breaks them. And then he goes to the golden calf and grinds it up, puts that grounds in water and tells them to drink it. When Moses confronts Aaron, Aaron says, "… I threw the gold into the fire and out came the calf." God is angry and says He's going to destroy the people, but Moses pleads for God not to do that, if someone has to die that God would take it out on him and not the people and for the honor of God's name, that God would not destroy a nation He had delivered. Many do die, but God is gracious and merciful. They had turned their back on God, but God doesn't turn His back on them. And we see the goodness of God.

    Exodus is filled with Jesus. There are so many fingerprints of the Lord Jesus in this book - we see the story of the Israelite deliverance reenacted by Jesus.

    EXODUS IN THE NEW TESTAMENT
    "Tabernacled" - John 1:14
    "Egypt" - Matthew 2:15 (Hosea 11:1)
    "Exodus" - Luke 9:31
    "Baptized" - 1 Corinthians 10:2
    "Passover Lab" - 1 Corinthians 5:7
    "Blood of the Covenant" - Luke 22:20 (Exodus 24:8)

    Pastor closes with a look at worship of God and the plans for the tabernacle, the furnishings, and how they were to worship including rules and regulations God had put into place.

    Join us next week for Leviticus, a book many think is nothing but boring and filled with rules and regulations, but it actually shows us the foundation of true worship and of God's plan for His people.

    January 22 - Exodus (Part 1)
    2026/01/22
    This week we begin our exploration of the book of Exodus. We will spend 2 weeks examining this book that is the foundation for the biblical faith, that lays out the fundamentals of worship of the One true God and shows and tells us who He is, how He works, what He does and what that means for us. In the book of Exodus we see God moving in a powerful way to save His people, to deliver them from bondage. We also see that as God moves throughout history He makes Himself known and in each incident they point to an even greater reality. As we look at this book we will look at it with the intent of seeing Jesus clearly portrayed in its pages and in its events. Pastor digs into the dating of the events and the chronology of this book sharing many of the differing views including tackling the 200 year difference of the dating and also taking a dive into the Egyptian chronology which has been used as a standard of time. Pastor uses several examples with some interesting possible new dates based on scholarly examples, biblical evidence, archeological discoveries and the chronology of other ancient peoples. When these are placed against the traditionally accepted Egyptian chronology they may expose possible errors in the Egyptian chronology and thus the dating of the book of exodus events. Pastor believes what we will read in Exodus is true and that we need to critically examine what others are saying when we have such a real genuine and true account revealed in the book of Exodus. Moses is the main character in this book. As the book starts we see the growth of Joseph's family growing from 70 to over 2 million Israelites in a couple hundred years. The Egyptians are beginning to feel threatened by the number and their solution is to kill the Israelite boys being born. When Moses was born his family puts him in a basket (an "ark" covered in pitch) and place him in the river. Moses is found by pharaoh's own daughter and she takes him as her son. At 40 Moses flees for his life from Egypt to Midian. For the next 40 years Moses works as a shepherd in Midian. Then at Mt. Sinai the Lord, in a bush on fire, speaks to Moses and at 80 Moses is told that God has chosen him to set His people free. Thus begins the familiar story of God using Moses to set His people free. Pastor also poses the possibility of Mt. Sinai being in Median and not the place we have traditionally accepted as its location. -Pastor shares some interesting recent archeological evidence that puts the traditional location into further question. Then Pastor shares The 10 plagues: 1. Blood 2. Frogs 3. Gnats 4. Flies 5. Livestock 6. Boils 7. Hail 8. Locusts 9. Darkness 10. Firstborn (Passover event) Israelite firstborn were saved by taking the blood of a lamb and putting it on the top and sides of their doors. Pastor talks about the Passover and that it is celebrated with four cups as part of the Passover meal based on Exodus 6:6-7. Cups: 1. "I will bring you out." 2. "I will free you" 3. "I will redeem you" 4. "I will take you" Join us again next week for week 5 and part 2 of our study of Exodus.
