We are planning to finish up Exodus this week and discuss when we will switch to Summer mode. Last year we met every other week for Dinner during the Summer. I thought it was a great time and we had several other guys join us.
Last week was a lot of fun with pizza, pop corn and a DVD on the Temple. Thanks Ted!
Celebrations: Bob Huffman was at the 8:30 service and walking very well after hip surgery
Event:
24 Hour fast and prayer – Bob Mack brought up the idea for the Men’s group. Please be in prayer to about our group doing this.
Short discussion of Exodus -http://www.biblica.com/niv/study-bible/exodus/
Exodus lays a foundational theology in which God reveals his name, his attributes, his redemption, his law and how he is to be worshiped. It also reports the appointment and work of Moses as the mediator of the Sinaitic covenant, describes the beginnings of the priesthood in Israel, defines the role of the prophet and relates how the ancient covenant relationship between God and his people (see note on Ge 17:2) came under a new administration (the covenant given at Mount Sinai).
Profound insights into the nature of God are found in chs. 3; 6; 33–34. The focus of these texts is on the fact and importance of his presence with his people (as signified by his name Yahweh—see notes on 3:14–15—and by his glory among them). But emphasis is also placed on his attributes of justice, truthfulness, mercy, faithfulness and holiness. Thus to know God’s “name” is to know him and to know his character (see 3:13–15; 6:3).
Thanks for all you do!
