Sermons & Teaching

The study of the Tabernacle Altar continues. A Malachi 1:6-14 focus is the theme. Don’t give God your second and third best at the alter of sacrifice.

Preacher — Pastor Jon

Hebrews 11 Is the theme: To Abraham, Issac, and Jacob and beyond!
Now on to Moses. A lot to discuss here as we consider who and what Moses did.

Teacher — Jack Greenwood

We continue our look at the Altar. The Altar is a place for sacrifice in place of judgment, but fire serves more than only judgment. Fire also acts to purify and refine. So it is in our lives as we allow God to do His work, He allows hardship to shape us and purify us into who He wants for us to be.

Preacher — Pastor Jon

Hebrews 11:13-19 Abraham offers Issac to God. You can’t read this in Hebrews without reviewing Genesis 22:1-13. God provided Himself an offering.

Teacher — Jack Greenwood

Hebrews 11, BY FAITH, is the theme.
Here we pick up with the life of Abraham and Sarah. Obedience by faith and the move to Canna is an unknown journey that ended where God wanted.
Hebrews 11:8-19 is the core text for the day.

Teacher — Jack Greenwood

As we peer through the gate/curtain into the Tabernacle court, the first thing that should grab our attention is the Alter. IT is huge, 7 1/2 feet by 7 1/2 feet by 4 1/2 foot tall. it dominates physically. But it is as well the reminder that there is sacrifice for sin that needs to be made. In the OT the sacrifices were daily and ongoing. But Hebrews tells us that Jesus was the once for all Sacrifice for our sins. What do we do as response to that?

Preacher — Pastor Jon

Jesus as Prophet, Priest and King is an important principle for our daily living. How do we trust Christ if we don’t know who He is? If He is only a good man and teacher as an example we will miss the point. But if His works and words prove He is the greatest of prophets then the reality of that can change our lives as it did for those in the Gospel narratives.

The story of Hebrews and what faith looks like as shown through history continues on by looking at Enoch and Noah in Hebrews 11:5-7
Teacher — Jack Greenwood

Exodus 27:9-19 speaks of the curtain that surrounds the courtyard of the Tabernacle. The curtain was white to represent purity. The challenge is that it was in the dry dusty desert, similar to our lives needing to model purity in our sin filled world. Not and easy task to stay clean, but thankfully God made a way into His presence.
