A People Who Know God’s Presence
Bible Reading: Exodus 33:12-23
Preacher: Mike Goheen
Have you ever wondered about the purpose of the Old Testament tabernacle? God’s presence is with His people Israel through the tabernacle. In Exodus tabernacle is built and God comes to dwell with his people. Importantly, God’s dwelling with his people gets increasingly intimate throughout the biblical story—tabernacle, temple, Jesus, Spirit, full presence of Triune God in new creation (Rev. 21:3). This Sunday we will see that the tabernacle is not only a symbol of God’s presence, but a symbol for the mission of the church - for it is God’s presence that makes His people an attractive people for their mission to the world.
