"Things Written Again & Again To Be Safe" Exodus 36-38; Matthew 23:1-22


There are chapters and chapters about building the temple. Why so many? It was for those who were building it---designers of perfume, designers of woodwork, interior designers...

God tells us what we should read again and again and again.  Those repetitive chapters for our lives that need to be inculcated on our souls.  In Philippians 3:1-2 Paul says that to write the same for all of us is "safe." "To write the same things again is no trouble for me, and it is a 'safeguard' for you." M. Henry. So, go "walk about this Zion" and see the beauty---the more you contemplate the glories of the church, the more you will see and love and live.  Go walk among your church this quarantined life and see the beauty.  And notice the things that are written again and again for you to be "safe."
