  1. The Passover Origin Story: The Price of Freedom is costly

    Leave a Comment

    Our Freedom is Costly, Sudden, A Life-Long Pilgrimage

    Exodus 12:1-13

    12 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, 2 “This month shall be for you the beginning of months. It shall be the first month of the year for you. 3 Tell all the congregation of Israel that on the tenth day of this month every man shall take a lamb according to their fathers’ houses, a lamb for a household. 4 And if the household is too small for a lamb, then he and his nearest neighbor shall take according to the number of persons; according to what each can eat you shall make your count for the lamb. 5 Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male a year old. You may take it from the sheep or from the goats, 6 and you shall keep it until the fourteenth day of this month, when the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill their lambs at twilight.[a]

    7 “Then they shall take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and the lintel of the houses in which they eat it. 8 They shall eat the flesh that night, roasted on the fire; with unleavened bread and bitter herbs they shall eat it. 9 Do not eat any of it raw or boiled in water, but roasted, its head with its legs and its inner parts. 10 And you shall let none of it remain until the morning; anything that remains until the morning you shall burn. 11 In this manner you shall eat it: with your belt fastened, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand. And you shall eat it in haste. It is the Lord’s Passover. 12 For I will pass through the land of Egypt that night, and I will strike all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and on all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments: I am the Lord. 13 The blood shall be a sign for you, on the houses where you are. And when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and no plague will befall you to destroy you, when I strike the land of Egypt.

  2. What will we do in eternity?

    Sept. 27, 2020

    Growing Cantaloupe in the New Earth?  Would Jesus plant Cantaloupe, raise a flock of sheep?  Artist? Engineers?  Geophysicists? Mathematicians? Musicians?

    What will we do in eternity?

    Genesis 1:28 Dominion
    28 And God blessed them. And God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”

    Psalm 8:3-5
    When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers,

        the moon and the stars, which you have set in place,
    4 what is man that you are mindful of him,
        and the son of man that you care for him?

    5 Yet you have made him a little lower than the heavenly beings[a]
        and crowned him with glory and honor.

    Hebrews 2:5-8a
    5 For it was not to angels that God subjected the world to come, of which we are speaking.
    6 It has been testified somewhere,

    “What is man, that you are mindful of him,
        or the son of man, that you care for him?
    7 You made him for a little while lower than the angels;
        you have crowned him with glory and honor,[a]
    8     putting everything in subjection under his feet.”

    We will be moving from the Garden to the City.  Recreating culture post garden.

    Genesis 4:20-22
    20 Adah bore Jabal; he was the father of those who dwell in tents and have livestock. 21 His brother’s name was Jubal; he was the father of all those who play the lyre and pipe. 22 Zillah also bore Tubal-cain; he was the forger of all instruments of bronze and iron. The sister of Tubal-cain was Naamah.

    Revelation 5:9-10

    9 And they sang a new song, saying,

    “Worthy are you to take the scroll
        and to open its seals,
    for you were slain, and by your blood you ransomed people for God
        from every tribe and language and people and nation,
    10 and you have made them a kingdom and priests to our God,
        and they shall reign on the earth.”

    Will my dog be in heaven?  Geno’s Theory. Imprinting.

    Isaiah 11:1-9

    There shall come forth a shoot from the stump of Jesse,
        and a branch from his roots shall bear fruit.
    2 And the Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him,
        the Spirit of wisdom and understanding,
        the Spirit of counsel and might,
        the Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord.
    3 And his delight shall be in the fear of the Lord.
    He shall not judge by what his eyes see,
        or decide disputes by what his ears hear,
    4 but with righteousness he shall judge the poor,
        and decide with equity for the meek of the earth;
    and he shall strike the earth with the rod of his mouth,
        and with the breath of his lips he shall kill the wicked.
    5 Righteousness shall be the belt of his waist,
        and faithfulness the belt of his loins.

    6 The wolf shall dwell with the lamb,
        and the leopard shall lie down with the young goat,
    and the calf and the lion and the fattened calf together;
        and a little child shall lead them.
    7 The cow and the bear shall graze;
        their young shall lie down together;
        and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.
    8 The nursing child shall play over the hole of the cobra,
        and the weaned child shall put his hand on the adder’s den.

    Romans 8:15b-17
    15 For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!” 16 The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, 17 and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him.

  3. New Heaven and New Earth: Will the Circle Be Unbroken? 3rd Talk on Heaven

    Leave a Comment

    Will the circle be unbroken?

    1. Doesn’t the Bible teach the earth’s fiery end?
    2. Is the promise of renewal real or just a word-picture?
    3. What will the new heavens and earth be like?
    4. What will it be like to abide eternally in God’s Presence?
    5. What will our relationship with Christ be in heave?

    2 Peter 3:5-6

    5 For they deliberately overlook this fact, that the heavens existed long ago, and the earth was formed out of water and through water by the word of God, 6 and that by means of these the world that then existed was deluged with water and perished.

    2 Peter 3:7

    7 But by the same word the heavens and earth that now exist are stored up for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly.
