The Deliverer Delivered (By Women)!

The Deliverer Delivered (By Women)!Exodus 2:1-10 If you have your Bibles, I’ve invite you to turn with me to Exodus 2. You will remember from our study of the last two or three weeks that Pharaoh, in his desire to bring the children of Israel under control, and to make sure that they do not become a threat to join with the anti-Egyptians as allies to conquer the land, has attempted several different plans or plots to make sure that Israel is suppressed. He may have genuinely only desired to suppress Israel. However, as the tool of Satan, he is in fact engaged in a war of genocide against Israel. Satan desires to snuff Israel out. Three plans, three plots. We saw first excruciating labor. He put Israel to the test in causing them to do backbreaking manual labor. When that failed its…

A New King, who knew not Joseph

Exodus: 1:8-14A New King, Who Knew Not Joseph If you have your Bibles, I’d invite you to turn with me to Exodus, chapter 1 as we continue in this great book together. As we said the last time, Exodus is Moses’ sequel to the epic story of Genesis. Exodus resumes Genesis account of God’s sovereignty and His good providence in the lives of the patriarchs. Moses goes out of his way to connect these books. When you see the genealogy, which begins the book of Exodus, it connects us with the story of Jacob. When we look at verse 7 and the reflection on the fact that the sons of Israel were fruitful and increased greatly and multiplied and became exceedingly mighty, it not only connects us with Adam and the creation where that ordinance is given to Adam and Eve to be fruitful and multiply.…

Famine and Family

Genesis 42:1-39 Famine and Family If you have your Bibles I'd invite you to turn with me to Genesis, chapter 42, as we continue to work our way through Moses' first of the five books of the Old Testament, the book of Genesis. The last time we were together we were in the final section of Genesis 41, and we observed there that in the famine that God ordained for Egypt, He had a plan for the family of Jacob and for Joseph which he was willing to visit famine not only in Egypt, but in Canaan in order to enforce and bring about. God was ready to ordain a providence which would impact much of the Mediterranean world for at least the purpose of bringing out His purposes in the family of Jacob. And it shows again how God rules the world in His providence for His people. We called that…

A Ruler in Egypt

Genesis 41:38-57 Ruler in Egypt If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to Genesis 41. In the last several weeks we have been working through the life of Joseph together. We've emphasized on a number of occasions that two overarching themes are found in this whole section of the book of Genesis. First, the providence of God. And second, the way that God designed to create a great nation out of Jacob's great family. How would Jacob go from being a tremendous tribe,…

Success, Loyalty, and Betrayal

Genesis 39:1-23Success, Loyalty and Betrayal If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to Genesis 39. The last few weeks we have been doing our first studies in the final section of the book of Genesis in chapters 37 through 50 and the story of the life of Joseph. And we've said several times now that two things are important to understand about this section of the book. First of all the story of Joseph tells us how Israel wound up in Egypt, and secondly it explains to us…

The Dereliction

If you have your Bibles, I’d invite you to turn with me to Matthew, chapter 27. We have been working towards the crucifixion for some time now in our study of the gospel of Matthew. And all along during our studies in this particular chapter, Matthew, chapter 27, we have said that Matthew is recounting the death of Christ with a view to showing us the nature and the significance of Christ’s death. He’s wanting to show us what Christ endured for us, and then he’s wanting to show us what…

Jesus Mocked (by Gentiles, Jews and Thieves)

If you have your Bibles I’d invite you to turn with me to Matthew 27. We’re going to look at verses 33 through 44. We’ve come today to the very brink of the abyss. In the last couple of weeks we have seen Matthew describe the sufferings of the trial and of the treatment from the Roman soldiers on His way to the cross. And today we come to the crucifixion itself. Matthew has been telling us this for a variety of reasons. For one thing, he’s been telling us this because it happened. I want…

Jesus Mocked

Would you please turn with me in your Bibles to Matthew 27:27-32. We’ll continue our exposition of the gospel of Matthew, especially of this passage dealing with his passion. We Presbyterians don’t often focus upon the physical sufferings of Christ. There is a variety of reasons for that. But it’s important for us to see those sufferings as they are displayed very clearly here by Matthew. Matthew wants us to take account of the reality of those sufferings. There have always been those in…

Peter’s Denial

If you have your Bibles, I would invite you to turn with me to Matthew, chapter 26, the 69th verse of that chapter, as we come now to the end of this passage, which we have said all along is preparatory to the death of the Lord Jesus Christ. Every event recorded by Matthew, in Matthew, chapter 26 prepares us for what we are going to see in Matthew, chapter 27 on the day of our Lord’s crucifixion. It sets the stage and such is the case with the passage we are studying today. Let me just say as…
