God Remembered His Covenant

God Remembered His CovenantExodus 2:23-25 If you have your Bibles, I’d invite you to turn with me to Exodus, chapter 2, to the end of the chapter, beginning in verse 23. In Exodus, chapter 2, verses 23 through 25 we continue a story that we’ve been looking at for a number of weeks now. As we have looked at God’s dealings in the book of Exodus we come tonight to a very important passage, a passage that reveals the wise timing of God’s plan. It reveals to us the continuing burden of God’s people under oppression in Egypt. It reveals to us God’s heart of compassion and the reason behind His purposes of redemption. Before we get to that story, we will do well to remember some of the ground that we have traversed. But first let’s hear God’s holy word here in Exodus, chapter 2,…

The Burning Bush: Nec tamen Consumebatur

The Burning Bush: Nec tamen ConsumebaturExodus 3:1-12 If you have your Bibles, I’d invite you to turn with me to Exodus, chapter 3, as we come to that incident of the burning bush. This is for the second consecutive week a pivotal passage pregnant with meaning in the Exodus story, a section that records the call of Moses into service as the deliverer of God’s people. But before we get to that story, we perhaps needs to remember some of the themes we’ve already seen. Already in Exodus, chapter 1, we’ve seen the deliberate way that Moses links creation and redemption. God’s work of redemption is just as great and broad a work as is his work of creation, in the repetition of the phrase “fruitful and multiplied” several times in Exodus, chapter 1, Moses ties in what God…

Christian World View – Postmodernism #1

Wednesday Evening August 4, 2004 Exodus 3:10-15 “Christian World View” – Postmodernism (1) The Reverend J. Ligon Duncan III If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to Exodus, chapter three. We’re going to be looking at Postmodernism, which in some ways is not even a worldview, but it is a pervasive influence on the thinking of the world in which you live. We’ll be looking at it for two weeks. Today we’ll look at Postmodernism; next week we’ll look at “Postmodernism Goes to College.” And if you know folks who have children in college, who have graduate students off in graduate or post-graduate education, perhaps that would be a good session to invite them to, because I want to explore how this form of thinking has massively impacted the entirety of…

I AM Who I AM

I Am Who I AmExodus 3:13-22 If you have your Bibles, I’d invite you to turn with me to Exodus, chapter 3. When last we were together, God had revealed Himself in this manifestation of the burning bush to Moses, and had announced to him His intentions to make him His spokesman to Pharaoh and His leader for Israel. Moses has already met the Lord with one question. Who am I to do this? What qualifications do I have to do this, Lord? Are you sure that you have the right person? And now we will…

Signs and Wonders for Moses

Signs and Wonders for MosesExodus 4:1-9 If you have your Bibles, I’d invite you to turn with me to Exodus, chapter 4. Ever since we entered Exodus 3, we have been witnesses to an ongoing conversation between the Lord, the God of Israel, and Moses, His servant. This conversation began with Moses seeing the curious sight of a bush which was burning, but not being consumed on the side of Sinai as he grazed sheep. And it turned out to be a manifestation of God. Moses was curious, and God…

A Spokesman for Moses

A Spokesman for MosesExodus 4:10-17 I’d invite you to take your Bibles in hand and turn with me to Exodus 4. Now we’re continuing tonight in our story of Moses’ encounter with the living God at Sinai. As we studied Exodus 1, we saw God’s sovereignty being emphasized in His dealings with His people. When we studied Exodus 2, we saw Moses, the future deliverer introduced to us. He’s introduced in a favorable light, but he was unsuccessful in liberating Israel by his own efforts, and he…

Hardening Pharaoh’s Heart

Hardening Pharaoh’s HeartExodus 4:18-26 If you have Bibles, I’d invite you to turn with me to Exodus, chapter 4, verse 18. In Exodus 1 God’s sovereignty was emphasized. In Exodus 2 Moses, the future deliverer of Israel, is introduced to us and put in a favorable light. In the end of Exodus 2, verses 23 through 25 we learn that the redemption of Israel is rooted in God’s prior commitments to Abraham. In other words God’s redemption of Israel out of Egypt is rooted in the covenant…

The People Believed, Worshiped and are Afflicted

The People Believe, Worship and are AfflictedExodus 4:27-5:14 If you have your Bibles I’d invite you to turn with me to Exodus 4, verse 27. Now we’re continuing our study in Exodus. We have seen throughout this message of God’s deliverance, especially in the first eighteen chapters it is emphasized that we are redeemed by God, and we are within the first of three parts in those first eighteen chapters, focusing on the trials and the bondage of Israel. In Exodus 1, we said that God’s…

The Foremen Grumble Against Moses

The Foreman Grumble Against Moses Exodus 5:15-6:1 If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to Exodus, chapter 5. Last week we looked at Exodus 4:27 through 5:14, and we noted several themes there. In God's approaching Aaron, before Moses ever had to go find Aaron, and tell him that God was sending him on into Egypt, God provided tremendous providential encouragement to Moses. He showed Moses again that He would be with him, He would provide for him, every step of the way.…
