<span style="font-size: large;">While immigration may seem to many like a hot-button political topic, we take it as an opportunity to do what we are called to do—take care of those in need and extend unconditional love.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"> An estimated one in seven people who reside in the United States is from another nation, and millions of these immigrants have limited English proficiency. This year approximately 50% of the students at our nearest local elementary school (Riveroaks) are from families where English is not the language of the home.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"> Can you imagine what it would be like to leave everything you’ve known and live in a place that was completely foreign? We seek to make a difference in the lives of immigrants in our own neighborhood-whether they are professionals, students or refugees.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"> We teach English as a Second Language (ESL) classes to help meet immigrants’ basic needs and share the hope of the gospel with them. If you would also like to help teach ESL learners, let us know!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We meet on Wednesdays at 5:30 pm for a free meal in the fellowship hall and start classes and kids ministry at 6:00 pm and end at 7:00 pm.</span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2354903306517592508.post-7380999157508911832020-01-18T07:42:00.001-08:002020-01-31T14:30:50.319-08:00Upcoming Concerts at Stevendale<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin-left: 36px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 11px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin-left: 36px;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 11px;">The tabernacle was complete. God now had a place where His glory could dwell without causing the Israelites to fear death. God had given His people laws from the mountain, and He gave them more rules for living and worshiping Him in the tabernacle. These rules are recorded in the Book of Leviticus. The reasoning behind Leviticus can be found in Leviticus 19:2: “Be holy because I, the LORD your God, am holy.”</span></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin-left: 36px;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 11px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin-left: 36px;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 11px;">In Leviticus 17:11, God set apart the blood of a creature as the means for making atonement. This answers the question, “Why did Jesus have to die?” God’s requirement for the forgiveness of sins was the shedding of blood: “According to the law almost everything is purified with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness” (Heb. 9:22).</span></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin-left: 36px;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 11px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin-left: 36px;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 11px;">It is important to note a New Testament revelation about the sin offering. Hebrews 10:4 says, “It is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.” Then why did God require people to make sacrifices? The institution of a sacrifice was to point to something greater—the ultimate sacrifice God would make by sending His own Son, Jesus Christ, to pay for the sins of the world once and for all. (See Eph. 1:7; Rom 5:9.)</span></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin-left: 36px;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 11px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin-left: 36px;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 11px;">The sacrifices God required of His people were a hint of what God was going to do to forgive sinners. We no longer need to offer sacrifices because we trust in Jesus. Jesus offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice that takes away our sin once and for all.</span></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin-left: 36px;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 11px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin-left: 36px;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 11px;">You and your children may not be familiar with the Book of Leviticus. Use this week as an opportunity to emphasize God’s holiness and His requirement of a blood sacrifice for the forgiveness of sins. Lead them to treasure Jesus as the perfect and final sacrifice “who takes away the sin of the world!” (John 1:29).</span></span></div>

<span lang="EN">Thirteen of the last sixteen chapters of the Book of Exodus contain instructions for building the tabernacle. The word tabernacle means “dwelling place.” The tabernacle was a portable tent where God met with His people. God wanted to dwell among them. (See Ex. 29:45-46.)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN">Moses had been on the mountain talking with God for 40 days. God wrote the Ten Commandments, the words of the covenant, on tablets. When Moses returned to the camp, he called all of the Israelites together and gave them the instructions God had given him. (Ex. 24:3-4)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN">God’s directions for building the tabernacle were very detailed. God was not trying to burden the people; He was trying to show them His holiness and absolute authority. God appointed Bezalel and Oholiab to oversee the building of the tabernacle, giving them wisdom, understanding, and craftsmanship. Every skilled person “whose heart moved him” eagerly worked on the tabernacle of the Lord. (See Ex. 35:30-35; 36:1-6.)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN">God gave the Israelites the tabernacle as a visual picture of His dwelling with them. The tabernacle—and later the temple that replaced it—was a temporary place for God’s glory to dwell until the coming of Christ. (2 Cor. 4:6) Every part of the tabernacle was designed to illustrate God’s relationship with His people.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN">As you talk to your kids about the building of the tabernacle, show them <b>God instructed the Israelites to build a tabernacle where He would dwell with them. God desires to be with His people. As part of His plan to save sinners, God sent Jesus to “tabernacle,” or dwell, with people on earth.</b>Emphasize that in the future, He will dwell with us forever.

<span lang="EN">But when Moses went up on the mountain and did not return for several weeks, the Israelites felt abandoned. They appealed to Moses’ brother, Aaron: “Come, make gods for us who will go before us because this Moses, the man who brought us up from the land of Egypt—we don’t know what has happened to him!” (Ex. 32:1)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN">Aaron’s response led the people to commit a terrible sin. He gathered gold from the people and made an image of a calf, and the people worshiped the golden calf. God saw what the people were doing, and He told Moses to go down the mountain at once. Moses confronted his brother. Aaron claimed that when the people gave him the gold, he threw it into the fire, and “out came this calf!” (Ex. 32:24)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN">God punished His people for worshiping a golden calf, and Moses returned to the mountain to ask the Lord to forgive the Israelites’ sin. Moses could not atone for the people’s sin; God said He would hold the people accountable for their sins, but the Lord did not abandon the Israelites.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN">Introduce your children to the concept of idolatry. An <i>idol </i>is anything a person puts in the place of God. Explain that idolatry is a sin. The Israelites deserved to be punished for their sin. In the same way, we deserve to be punished for our sin. Point out that <b>God’s people sinned against God, and Moses asked God to forgive them. Moses acted as their mediator, standing for them before God. Moses could not do anything to make up for their sin, but we have a better Mediator—Jesus. Jesus paid for our sin on the cross and stands for us before God. When we trust in Jesus, our sins are forgiven.</b><s><br /></s><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12px;">I hope you enjoyed the </span><i style="font-size: 12px;">(not-so)</i><span style="font-size: 12px;">big game last week. We had a lot of fun cheering against the team who shouldn't have been there anyway.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Next Sunday, February 17, We are hosting a soup cook-off. We are calling it the Souper Bowl. Please feel free to bring your crock-pots stocked with your favorite soup. We will vote with dollars on who has the tastiest. Last year we raised nearly $1000 dollars for Family Ministries and helped send 9 children to camp. Can you claim the Golden Ladle? Don't miss out on the fun, fellowship and fundraising. Join us February 17 after church for the 2nd annual<b> Souper Bowl.</b></div>
