Sunday Morning Worship - "The Tabernacle - Meeting with God"

Sunday Morning Worship - "The Tabernacle - Meeting with God"

In this message from June 1, Teaching Pastor, David Jett continues our series in Exodus where we're invited to explore the profound concept of meeting with God. The central theme revolves around Exodus 24-31, where God instructs Moses about the tabernacle. But this isn't just about ancient history - it's a vivid picture of God's desire to dwell among us. We learn that meeting God isn't about our religious efforts, but about embracing the privilege He offers. Bro. David challenges our innate tendency to think we can earn our way to God, reminding us that it's God who pursues us. This message encourages us to shift our perspective from trying to climb the mountain to God, to recognizing that Jesus has already come down the mountain to us. It's a call to embrace the reality of God's love and presence in our lives, not through religious rituals, but through a genuine relationship made possible by Christ's sacrifice and the indwelling Holy Spirit.

Key Points:

God pursues us; we don't pursue Him

The tabernacle and sacrificial system in Exodus were pictures of God's plan

Jesus is the fulfillment of the Old Testament sacrificial system

The Holy Spirit enables our relationship with God

Meeting with God is a privilege to embrace, not a religious duty to perform
