Seeds of Faith, The Presence and the Pattern
Manage episode 379227182 series 1032776
Sermon Scripture: Exodus 20:1-4, 7-9, 12-27, Matthew 21:33-44
Among Hebrew scholars, it is well accepted that most modern Biblical translations of the Ten Commandments have misrepresented the intent of Exodus 20. The words might work, but they don’t really fit the spirit of God’s work in the Exodus event. The “commandments” begin with an act of redemption. The law begins with grace. So why would we assume these are heavy burdens laid on us with wagging fingers and furrowed brows? God isn’t commanding obedience; God is inviting us into a new way of being with these verses. We shouldn’t read them as commandments as much as descriptions.
This week we invite you into the Presence and Pattern of God at work in our lives.
