Gods Continual Reminders (Exodus 13: 1-16)

Send us Fan MailEpisode Notes: "God's Continual Reminders" (Exodus 13:1-16)Introduction:Humans are prone to forgetting things, both mundane and spiritual. Yet the Lord provides reminders in Scripture to help us remember spiritual truths.Consecration of the Firstborn (Exodus 13:1-2):The firstborn is to be consecrated, separated for the Lord's purpose, but only the firstborn males of animals belong to the Lord.  The Passover establishes the principle of God's ownership over the firstborn.Feast of Unleavened Bread and Passover (Exodus 13:3-10):The people are instructed to remember the day of their deliverance from Egypt. The feast symbolizes the removal of sin from their lives and God wants them to remember the salvation and the banishment of sin.Remembering the Day and the Promised Land (Exodus 13:11-16):God wants them to remember the day they were saved and delivered from slavery. The promised land is described as flowing with milk and honey, signifying abundance. They should not forget their past hardships when they enjoy the blessings of the land.Significance of the Feast and Firstborn (Exodus 13:11-16):The feast and the firstborn are connected in the minds of the people.  The firstborn male child is designated to be a priest, and the firstborn animals are set apart for sacrifice. The people are instructed to keep these ordinances as a memorial from year to year. The true significance is to remember and let God's words affect their thoughts and actions.Conclusion:God provides reminders to help us remember His salvation and deliverance. The feasts and rituals are meant to keep the memory alive, but the true essence is to internalize and apply God's truths in our lives.Podcast Home.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.comHelp me to continue to make and share great Biblical content everyday and download a free PDF version of this Book at | PatreonSupport the showFollow and support me on Patreon.Jeremy McCandless | Creating Podcasts and Bible Study Resources | PatreonTo receive my weekly newsletter and keep up to date with all five of my podcasts, subscribe at:Jeremy McCandless | SubstackCheck out my other Podcasts.The Bible Project: https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.comHistory of the Christian Church: https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.comThe L.I.F.E.

The Most Important Thing to Remember (Exodus 12: 29-50)

Send us Fan Mail"The Most Important Thing to Remember" (Exodus 12:29-50)In this episode, we reflects on the importance of remembering certain things in life and draws parallels between those things and the importance of remembering God's instructions to His people throughout the Bible.We examine that through the continuing Old Testament story of the Passover from Exodus Chapter 12, focusing on verses 29-30, which describe the plague of the death of the firstborn in Egypt. Drawing parallels between the Old Testament Passover and Christian salvation, emphasizing the importance of faith in God's promises and the death of Christ. and  how individuals in the Old Testament were saved, emphasizing that salvation has always been by faith and the basis of salvation is the death of Christ.The object of faith in the Old Testament centered around the promise of God's deliverance, while in the New Testament, it focuses on Jesus and His sacrifice and we conclude by affirming that salvation in all ages is obtained through faith and the requirement for sacrifice, and the content of faith is rooted in God's promises.Podcast Home.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.comHelp me to continue to make and share great Biblical content everyday and download a free PDF version of this Book at | PatreonSupport the showFollow and support me on Patreon.Jeremy McCandless | Creating Podcasts and Bible Study Resources | PatreonTo receive my weekly newsletter and keep up to date with all five of my podcasts, subscribe at:Jeremy McCandless | SubstackCheck out my other Podcasts.The Bible Project: https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.comHistory of the Christian Church: https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.comThe L.I.F.E.

Passover - A Template for Spiritual Life (Exodus 12: 1-28)

Send us Fan MailEpisode Notes: Passover - A Template for Spiritual Life (Exodus 12: 1-28)Introduction:The Bible is full of object lessons and visual representations of important concepts in life.Exodus Chapter 12 presents two snapshots of our spiritual life, providing a simple, vivid picture of the biblical narrative.First Snapshot - The Passover Feast:The Passover feast is a well-known event in the Bible, but there are important details that need to be explained.The month of Passover signifies the beginning of the Israelites' new year and is a communal affair, not just an individual or family ceremony.Significance of the Passover Feast:The Passover feast holds great importance in the lives of the Israelites, symbolizing their liberation from Egypt.It goes beyond being a mere ritualistic meal and serves as a commemoration of their bitter experience and swift deliverance.The blood of the lamb serves as a sign of salvation and faith in God's promise of deliverance.Connection to Jesus Christ:Jesus is revealed as the ultimate fulfillment of the Passover, referred to as the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.The Passover lamb and its significance point to Jesus Christ's sacrificial death.Just as the blood of the Passover lamb on the doorposts signified deliverance, Jesus' blood signified His sacrificial death for humanity.Jesus' death satisfied God's justice, and through faith in Him, believers are saved from judgment.Doctrine of Propitiation:The doctrine of propitiation is a significant concept in the New Testament.Propitiation means that God is satisfied, and in the case of Jesus' death, His sacrifice satisfied God's justice for sin.The Passover feast provides a snapshot of this doctrine, where the blood of the lamb signifies satisfaction and salvation.Second Snapshot: Feast of Unleavened Bread:The Feast of Unleavened Bread follows the Passover feast immediately.The removal of leaven symbolizes the removal of sin from their lives.The Feast of Unleavened Bread is observed throughout generations as an everlasting ordinance.Conclusion:The Passover feast and the Feast of Unleavened BreSupport the showFollow and support me on Patreon.Jeremy McCandless | Creating Podcasts and Bible Study Resources | PatreonTo receive my weekly newsletter and keep up to date with all five of my podcasts, subscribe at:Jeremy McCandless | SubstackCheck out my other Podcasts.The Bible Project: https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.comHistory of the Christian Church: https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.comThe L.I.F.E.

Moses Before Pharoah - Part 4 - The Plague on the Firstborn (Exodus 11: 1-11)

Send us Fan MailPodcast Home.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.comHelp me to continue to make and share great Biblical content everyday and download a free PDF version of this Book at | PatreonMoses Before Pharoah - Part 4 - The Plague on the Firstborn (Exodus 11 1-11)In this episode, we delve into the story of Moses and Pharaoh as they face the culmination of their epic struggle. After nine failed attempts to convince Pharaoh to release the children of Israel from Egypt, Moses finds himself at a crossroads. What do you do when someone repeatedly rejects the message you're delivering? Exodus Chapter 11 holds the answer.The episode begins by exploring the first three verses of Exodus 11, which serve as a brief interlude in the narrative. God instructs Moses to gather silver and gold from the Egyptians, preparing for what is to come. These precious materials will later play a significant role in the construction of the Tabernacle, a dwelling place for God among the Israelites.Moving forward, the focus shifts to the tenth and final plague: the death of the firstborn. This plague not only targets the firstborn of the Egyptians but includes the firstborn of the Israelites as well. The episode contemplates the reasoning behind this severe judgment, suggesting that it serves as a demonstration of God's sovereignty over the Egyptian gods. By attacking the gods associated with procreation and fertility, including Pharaoh himself, Yahweh asserts His superiority.Furthermore, the tenth plague is viewed as a judgment against the Egyptians, showcasing the Israelite belief that the first share of all produce belongs to God. The episode explains that this concept was prevalent among both the Hebrews and the pagan cultures of the ancient world.As the devastating plague unfolds, causing immense grief and outcry throughout Egypt, the children of Israel are set apart and spared from the tragedy. The episode foreshadows the forthcoming Passover, which will provide a means of escape and protection for the Israelites.Amidst the intense emotions and escalating tensions, Moses confronts Pharaoh once more. Verse eight reveals Moses' great anger as he departs from Pharaoh's presence. The passage pulsates with raw emotion, capturing the weight and graviSupport the showFollow and support me on Patreon.Jeremy McCandless | Creating Podcasts and Bible Study Resources | PatreonTo receive my weekly newsletter and keep up to date with all five of my podcasts, subscribe at:Jeremy McCandless | SubstackCheck out my other Podcasts.The Bible Project: https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.comHistory of the Christian Church: https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.comThe L.I.F.E.

Moses Before Pharoah - Part 3 (Exodus 9:13 - 10:29)

Send us Fan MailPodcast Home.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.comHelp me to continue to make and share great Biblical content everyday and download a free PDF version of this Book at | PatreonMoses Before Pharoah - Part 3 (Exodus 9:13 - 10: 29)In this episode, we continue exploring the story of Moses and his encounters with Pharaoh. The focus is on reaching stubborn and hard-hearted unbelievers for Christ, using the example of Pharaoh as a case study.The episode starts with Moses wondering what more he can do to reach Pharaoh, who repeatedly refuses to obey the Lord's commands. This sets the stage for understanding the dynamics of reaching stubborn unbelievers.The seventh plague is prophesied: a destructive hailstorm that will affect both humans and animals. This plague serves as a judgment against the Egyptian gods, showcasing the power of the Lord over all other gods. Pharaoh's officials who feared the word of the Lord hurriedly brought their slaves and livestock inside, while those who ignored the warning left them in the field. The hailstorm comes as predicted, causing devastation across Egypt, except for the land of Goshen where the Israelites reside. This stark contrast should have made an impact on the people, but Pharaoh remains unaffected. Pharaoh confesses, admitting that he and his people have sinned. However, this confession appears to be superficial, as he still does not fear the Lord God. Seven other individuals in the Bible have made similar confessions, but genuine repentance requires more than just uttering the words. Moses prays for the hail to stop, and it does. But Pharaoh's heart remains hardened, and he refuses to let the Israelites go, as the Lord had predicted through Moses.The eighth plague is announced: swarms of locusts that will devour everything left after the hailstorm. This serves as another opportunity for Pharaoh to humble himself and release the Israelites. Moses and Aaron confront Pharaoh once again, urging him to let the people go. Pharaoh's servants also recognize the destructive consequences of his actions and advise him to release the Israelites. Pharaoh initially agrees to let only the men go, but Moses insists that they will go with their entire community, including the young and old, and their livestoSupport the showFollow and support me on Patreon.Jeremy McCandless | Creating Podcasts and Bible Study Resources | PatreonTo receive my weekly newsletter and keep up to date with all five of my podcasts, subscribe at:Jeremy McCandless | SubstackCheck out my other Podcasts.The Bible Project: https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.comHistory of the Christian Church: https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.comThe L.I.F.E.

Then say to him, ‘Thus says the Lord: “Let My people go, that they may serve Me. 21 Or else, if you will not let My people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies on you and your servants, on your people and into your houses. The houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground on which they stand. 22 And in that day, I will set apart the land of Goshen, in which My people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there, in order that you may know that I am the Lord in the midst of the land. 23 I will make a difference between My people and your people. Tomorrow this sign shall be.” ’  24 And the Lord did so. Thick swarms of flies came into the house of Pharaoh, into his servants’ houses, and into all the land of Egypt. The land was corrupted because of the swarms of flies. 25 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, “Go, sacrifice to your God in the land.” 26 And Moses said, “It is not right to do so, for we would be sacrificing the abomination of the Egyptians to the Lord our God. If we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, then will they not stone us?  27 We will go three days’ journey into the wilderness and sacrifice to the Lord our God as He will command us.” 28 So Pharaoh said, “I will let you go, that you may sacrifice to the Lord your God in the wilderness; only you shall not go very far away.

And Aaron your brother shall tell Pharaoh to send the children of Israel out of his land. 3 And I will harden Pharaoh’s heart and multiply My signs and My wonders in the land of Egypt. 4 But Pharaoh will not heed you, so that I may lay My hand on Egypt and bring My armies and My people, the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great judgments. 5 And the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I stretch out My hand on Egypt and bring out the children of Israel from among them.” 6 Then Moses and Aaron did so; just as the Lord commanded them, so they did. 7 And Moses was eighty years old and Aaron eighty-three years old when they spoke to Pharaoh. 8 Then the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying, 9 “When Pharaoh speaks to you, saying, ‘Show a miracle for yourselves,’ then you shall say to Aaron, ‘Take your rod and cast it before Pharaoh, and let it become a serpent.’ ” 10 So Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and they did so, just as the Lord commanded. And Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh and before his servants, and it became a serpent. 11 But Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers; so the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their enchantments. 12 For every man threw down his rod, and they became serpents.

I do not know the Lord, nor will I let Israel go.”3 So they said, “The God of the Hebrews has met with us. Please, let us go three days’ journey into the desert and sacrifice to the Lord our God, lest He fall upon us with pestilence or with the sword.”4 Then the king of Egypt said to them, “Moses and Aaron, why do you take the people from their work? Get back to your labour.” 5 And Pharaoh said, “Look, the people of the land are many now, and you make them rest from their labour!” 6 So the same day Pharaoh commanded the taskmasters of the people and their officers, saying, 7 “You shall no longer give the people straw to make brick as before. Let them go and gather straw for themselves. 8 And you shall lay on them the quota of bricks which they made before. You shall not reduce it. For they are idle; therefore, they cry out, saying, ‘Let us go and sacrifice to our God.’ 9 Let more work be laid on the men, that they may labor in it, and let them not regard false words.” 10 And the taskmasters of the people and their officers went out and spoke to the people, saying, “Thus says Pharaoh: ‘I will not give you straw. 11 Go, get yourselves straw where you can find it; yet none of your work will be reduced.’ ” 12 So the people were scattered abroad throughout all the land of Egypt to gather stubble instead of straw.  13 And the taskmasters forced them to hurry, saying, “Fulfil your work, your daily quota, as when there was straw.” 14 Support the showFollow and support me on Patreon.Jeremy McCandless | Creating Podcasts and Bible Study Resources | PatreonTo receive my weekly newsletter and keep up to date with all five of my podcasts, subscribe at:Jeremy McCandless | SubstackCheck out my other Podcasts.The Bible Project: https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.comHistory of the Christian Church: https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.comThe L.I.F.E.
