Three And One With Pastor Dominic Dinger

More miscellaneous laws, the heart behind giving our first fruits to to God, the law inscribed on stones as testimony of blessing and of cursing and Jesus miraculously heals ten lepers but only one returns to say, "Thank You!".

Common courtesy with property and with reputations, a clean congregation and a clean campsite, a list of laws touching almost every area of life and money; a wonderful servant, a terrible master and an abominable god.

Further review of the cities of refuge, laws concerning witnesses, principles of warfare, laws concerning unsolved murders and the parables of the lost sheep, the lost coin and the lost son.

Fellowship Feasts reviewed, justice at a local level, what to look for in the character of a king, the priests portion, avoiding abominations, the prophecy of a coming Prophet, and Jesus teaches on the priority of people over process.

Rejecting temptation to follow other gods, being separate and obedient in what we eat, in what we give to God, in what we give or restore to others, in the offering of ourselves to the Lord to willingly become His slave and Jesus tackles some tough questions concerning suffering.

The Law and love, loving obedience is life and strength under the Old Covenant, a prescribed place of worship to worship the One true God, and Jesus teaches His disciples to live in the light storing up treasures in heaven without worrying about tomorrow ready for His return.

A chosen people, chosen to be set apart through faith-filled obedience, faith that is fueled by God’s past faithfulness not by our own self-righteousness, a model prayer a friend comes at midnight asking, seeking, knocking, a unclean spirit returns highlighting the importance of being healed and sealed by The Holy Spirit.

Moses makes sure this generation understands the importance of sharing these truths with their children, reviewing the 10 commandments, reviewing the greatest commandment, reinforcing once again the importance of teaching this to our children and Jesus sends out the seventy to serve.

A review of Israel’s rebellion, a review of Israel’s wandering in the wilderness, a review of the faithfulness of the Lord and the unfaithfulness of the leaders including Moses and Jesus continues to teach the disciples about the cost of discipleship.

The boundaries of blessing, leaders appointed to divvy up the land, cites for the levites to live in, cities of refuge, laws of inheritance for female heirs, women caring for those in ministry, a young girl and an older woman healed miraculously, graciously, by Jesus.

Equal opportunities for the enemies of Israel, some tribes settling for second best, the Exodus from Egypt up to this point summarized and reviewed and Jesus miraculously heals and miraculously forgives.

Regular rhythms of worship in His word, regulations on keeping your word, your vows and Jesus, the Lord of the Sabbath, the fulfillment of the feasts teaches His disciples, His apostles, how to fight by faith.

Moab tempts, Israel sins, God disciplines, a second census is taken as they are nearing the land of promise, the ministry of Moses coming to a close, the ministry of Joshua is just beginning and the first five to follow Jesus.

Balaam the prostitute prophet, attempted cursing only coming out as blessing time and time again, a diabolical scheme to tempt Israel, a diabolical scheme to tempt Jesus, victorious over sin, untainted but not unaffected by the human experience.

Laws of purification, the death of Miriam, the constant complaining, the overreaction and misrepresentation of Moses, discipline, death, the bronze serpent and John the Baptist prepares the way.

Rebellion against Moses and Aaron, complaints of the people, the budding of Aaron’s rod, support for the Levites to serve in the tabernacle, Jesus is born in Bethlehem, presented in the temple, raised in Nazareth and, when He was twelve, interacts with the academics about Scripture, amazing them with His knowledge and understanding.

Spying out the land, refusing to enter in, faith versus fear, discipline for disbelief, laws concerning unintentional sins, law concerning intentional sin and an angel announces the birth of John the Baptist and the birth of Jesus the Christ.

Two trumpets and time to go, the people complain and God answers big time, pride and jealously have their consequences and we find out why Jesus was buried in a borrowed tomb.  

Leaders make an offering so the Levite’s can labor, the Levites are dedicated and cleansed for their labor, an age range is declared for service in the Tabernacle, Israel celebrates their second passover, The Cloud, The Fire and Jesus faces Pilate, takes the place of Barabbas, is mocked crucified killed and buried in a borrowed tomb.

God divees up the duties for set up and tear down ministry for the Tabernacle, isolates the unclean, reiterates the importance of repentance AND restitution, the law of jealousy, the law of the Nazarite, the priestly blessing and the plot, the Passover, the prediction and the prayer.
