The Dwelling of God Part 2

The Dwelling of God Part 2

This week at River City Reformed, we will continue to think through the furnishings of the Tabernacle as detailed in Exodus 26:1-27:19. The Tabernacle description teaches us much about the holiness of God and the hope of the Gospel.

Join us for worship this Lord’s Day at 9 AM at 9820 W Markham St. (the sanctuary of Faith United Methodist Church). For more information, click here, or contact us. You can also watch our service on YouTube with a link posted to our Facebook page.

The Dwelling of God

The Dwelling of God

In Exodus 25, we come to the beginning of the description of the Tabernacle that is to be built for the Lord. The Tabernacle is to be God’s dwelling place among His people, as we see in verse 8 of chapter 25: “And let them make me a sanctuary, that I may dwell in their midst.” Have you ever thought of the wonder that it was that God would dwell in the midst of His people? His people were sinful, and yet God would be gracious to dwell among them.

This Lord’s Day at River City Reformed, we will begin to consider this Tabernacle and the wonder of God dwelling among His people. We will also consider the New Testament and Gospel realities to which this points us, as we remember that “the Word became flesh and dwelt among us…” (John 1:14)

Please join us for worship this Lord’s Day at 9820 West Markham St in Little Rock, AR. We meet at 9 AM. For more information, click here, or contact us. You can also watch our service on YouTube with a link posted to our Facebook page.

The Place that I have Prepared

The Place that I have Prepared

In Exodus 23:20-33, we see the promise that God makes to bring His people into the land that He has prepared for them. There are in this account many parallels to the Christian life and to our experience–we are waiting on the rest that is promised to those in Christ, and we have the confidence that Christ Himself is leading us and will deliver us there.

Join us for worship this Lord’s Day at River City Reformed at 9 AM as we consider this passage together. We meet at 9820 W Markham St. in Little Rock (The sanctuary of Faith United Methodist Church).

Rest, Feasts and the Kindness of God

Rest, Feasts and the Kindness of God

This week at River City, we will be studying Exodus 23:10-19, which teaches us about the patterns God set in place for His people Israel after delivering them from Egypt. We will see how the commands God gives to His people are for their good. Isn’t it always the case that God knows what is best for His own people?

True Justice

True Justice

There is much talk about justice today. It is good and right that we desire justice to be done. But much of the conversation about justice in this day and age leaves God out of the picture.

We are told in the Westminster Larger Catechism and question 7 that “God is…most just.” It is impossible for us to properly define justice apart from the just One, God Himself.

We are coming to a study of a lengthy section of Scripture this Lord’s Day, in Exodus 21:12-23:9. This section of Scripture teaches us about the civil laws that God gave to govern the people whom He had delivered from Egypt. We often speak about three divisions of the law. The moral law, which is expressed in the Ten Commandments, is still binding on all people everywhere. The ceremonial law, which pertained to the sacrificial system, is no longer in effect because Christ has been the perfect sacrifice. The civil law expired with the Old Testament theocracy, and therefore is no longer in effect. This, however, does not mean that studying these laws is somehow irrelevant to us. These laws teach us much about God’s character, and given that these are by and large applications of God’s moral law to the specific setting of the people, we can learn much about the moral law of God as well.

Join us as we consider these truths together this Lord’s Day, and also how God redeems His people from the penalty of His justice.
