#36 Make much of the tabernacle—-keep your lamps burning bright. Eternal flames. Do not be fixed on this world. The Gospel is a Person not a Place. Exodus 27:21 #60000thoughts #talkingtomyself
God led them there by Light.
God is there.
He is alive.
The Temple recognizes the God who is there.
We are The Temple today.
What God said is still alive.
And I am still here.
Eternal flames burn bright to say
Our God is Alive in me.
And He leads me out every single day.
Keep your lamps burning bright.
Exodus 27:21 - From evening to morning, it's a lasting ordinance for the generations to come---keep the lamps burning before the Lord.
Moses went up into the cloud to receive the specific instructions about building the tabernacle. What he saw in the cloud no one knows. He is instructed to face-to-face deliver instructions to his people. It is a tabernacle state. No continuing city for we are all strangers in this world. The "church privileges are movable goods" and we are all traveling together to a better country. We should never be fixed in this world. The Gospel is a person not a place. The tabernacle points to Him. Make much of the tabernacle and what we are to do in God's House (Jeremiah 11:15) and bring the offerings. Tell the Israelites and tell today's church to bring me an offering. Exodus 25:1. Their very lives.
Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples: “The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. So you must be careful to do everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach. They tie up heavy, cumbersome loads and put them on other people’s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them. “Everything they do is done for people to see." Matthew 23:2-5. Keep the lamps burning bright for Him.
