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.

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)

In Exodus 24, Moses writes down what the Lord has told him as he was given God’s law. The book in which he writes these words from God is referred to as “the Book of the Covenant.” (Exodus 24:7) The passage before us highlights the power of God’s Word spoken to Moses and written down for the people.
But the passage before us also addresses another ultimate question–how can the people of God enter into covenant with Him. It is important that they be sprinkled with the blood of the sacrifices that have been made, “the blood of the covenant.” But this blood of the covenant foreshadowed the true covering of the blood of Christ. It is His blood that has been shed for sinners.
Jesus says in at that last Supper with His disciples, “This cup that is poured out before you is the new covenant in my blood.” (Luke 22:20) Have you been washed with the blood of Christ? Have your sins been covered by His atoning death?
This week at River City Reformed we will consider how the people of God were brought into covenant with Him, but we will also consider our own hope in the blood of Christ shed for sinners.

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.

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?
