If you have your Bibles, I would invite you to turn with me to Psalm 117. This very short psalm, one psalm removed from a very long psalm, is a jewel and quoted in the New Testament — quoted in the New Testament in a very, very important passage on a very, very important topic because it's succinctly explains something about the plan of God in history that is vitally important for all Christians to know but it was especially important for them to understand it in the days of the early church. It's a short psalm but it's filled with big, huge, worldwide truths. And as we read it, I want you to be on the lookout for two or three things. First of all, this psalm gives an exhortation to the entire world. The psalm is not just an exhortation to the people of God gathered in one…

Passover

Wednesday Evening May 2, 2007 Numbers 9:1-14 “Passover” Dr. Ligon Duncan III I’d invite you to turn with me to Numbers, chapter nine. If you don’t have your Bibles with you, I believe that the text of tonight’s message is in the bulletin, and you can follow along there. A couple of weeks ago we were in the longest chapter in the Bible (that is, if you don’t count Psalm 119), Numbers 7, running to 89 verses; and we read all of those verses as we worked our way through that great chapter, a chapter that tells us a lot about the importance and the function of giving in worship, the privilege that God’s people have with meeting Him, the responsibility that they have to hear His word, the importance of being cleansed (or pardoned, or forgiven) if we’re…

Walk Like A Gentile?

The Lord's Day Morning April 23, 2006 Ephesians 4:17-24 “Walk Like a Gentile?” Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III Amen. If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to Ephesians, chapter four, as we continue our way through this great letter. Jesus emphasized to His disciples that they were to be in this world, but not of it. He said to them on one occasion that they were to be salt and light in this world, and that their light was not to be hidden nor was their salt to lose its saltiness, because their very distinctness from the world was precisely the way He planned for them to be a blessing to the world. That call for believers to be distinctive is a call which is heard throughout the New Testament, and it's heard in this passage today. It's a call for Christians to…

What is the Mystery of Christ?

The Lord's Day Morning November 27, 2005 Ephesians 3:1-6 “What is the Mystery of Christ?” Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III Amen. If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to Ephesians, chapter 3. Paul is about to return to prayer in this passage. We've seen throughout of study of this book how much of the letter of Paul to the Ephesians is filled with prayer: with prayer reports, with prayer requests, with outlines of prayer, with actual prayers that are lifted up in praise…

Assured by the Spirit of Promise

The Lord's Day Morning August 14, 2005 Ephesians 1:13-14 “Assured by the Spirit of Promise” Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to Ephesians, chapter one, as we look again at this great prayer. While we were looking at Ephesians 1:10 and 11 and 12 last week, we noticed the Apostle Paul praising God that God in His mercy had made these Jewish Christians, of whom Paul was a part, His people. God's people belong to Him, and God has done…

Doing the Right Thing to Pagans and Strangers

Wednesday Evening June 8, 2005 Leviticus 19Doing the Right Thing to Pagans and Strangers J. Ligon Duncan If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to Leviticus, chapter nineteen. This is one of the best-known chapters in the Book of Leviticus, in part because this is the chapter from which the New Testament gets the phrase “love your neighbor as yourself.” It's part of this final section of Leviticus that concerns the practice of holiness. It's telling believers in…

The Victory of God

If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to Psalm 68, as we continue to work our way through the Second Book of the Psalms. Now Psalm 68 may well be a Psalm which dates from the procession of the Ark into Jerusalem in the days of the reign of King David when the Ark of the Lord was brought with great rejoicing into the City of David at the time in which God had given David rest from all his enemies on the outside and on the inside, when the forces of Saul had been defeated,…

Let the Nations Be Glad: The Christian Experience of…

If you have your Bibles I'd invite you to turn with me to Psalm 67. We looked at this Psalm about two years ago at the time of the Missions Conference. You may not remember it but I do. The Missions Conference Committee had chosen the theme “Let the Nations Be Glad.” And they had done that in part based on John Piper's wonderful book called Let the Nations Be Glad: The Supremacy of God in Missions, which is maybe my favorite book on missions right now. In that book, in large measure,…

Mobile Sanctuary

Exodus 27:1-21Mobile Church That brings us to Exodus 27. So if you have your Bibles look with me there. “Our Lord and our God teach us from Your word this night of Christ and of Your worship. We ask it in Jesus' name. Amen.” I want to point you to three things. Exodus 27 divides into three parts. Verses 1-8 describe the altar of sacrifice. That altar of sacrifice was called different things. For instance, in the very first verse of the next chapter, it's called the altar of bronze,…
