Pastor Lloyd Pulley is leading us through Exodus chapter by chapter, and as we enter chapter thirty three, we are right on the heels of the Israelites sinning through their worship of the golden calf. After you sin and fail the Lord, have you ever wondered if God will give you another chance? Well, He will... and then some. But there are consequences for our actions as we're about to discover.

One of the reasons our country is in the mess it's in is because of the idols we have in our lives. Money, cars, houses, spouses.... the list goes on and on. Today pastor Lloyd brings us the conclusion of a message about the idolatry problems experienced by the people of Israel - and the trouble they got into because of it.

Today on Bridging the Gap Pastor Lloyd Pulley looks back to Exodus thirty two. Think Idolatry is a problem unique to the year 2023? Oh, no, it's been around for as long as man has been around. Moses didn't even make it down the mountain with the ten commandments before the people started worshipping a false idol.

Many a church body has withered and died because the people simply left it up to the pastor to get the word out. But all of us are called. We see great examples of this in the Old Testament. In the book of Exodus all of the people were involved in some way in serving the Lord and in the building of the tabernacle. We are looking at Exodus chapters thirty eight through forty.

Today in our series through Exodus, we're going to do something we don't do too often. We're going to jump ahead a few chapters to chapter thirty five. Don't worry - we'll go back and fill in the gaps in a couple of days, but for continuity's sake, we're going to go to chapter thirty five today. Pastor Lloyd will explain why in just a few moments. Have you been stirred in your heart by God's love lately? Every Christian knows what that feels like and there's really no other feeling like it. If you have a Bible handy, open it to Exodus chapter thirty five

We have spent several weeks going verse by verse through Exodus and gaining some very practical insights into the heart of God along the way. Today we will be taking a look at chapter thirty-one, where we find God's requirement for the condition of our heart when approaching Him.

Today Pastor Lloyd will shed some light on the amazing craftsmanship that went into the building of the Tabernacle and how God put even more care into the creation of us. The Bible tells us that we are wonderfully and fearfully made by our Creator. Isn't that remarkable? Let's turn together now to Exodus chapter thirty.

Pastor Lloyd Pulley will focus on chapter twenty-nine today, where we see the way sacrifices were to be carried out in the Old Testament days. How wonderful it is that we no longer need to do these things because Jesus Christ offered Himself up as the last and final sacrifice for all mankind.

When the Lord says that His Word is true, it's nice to know that we can take Him at His Word. Let's join Pastor Lloyd now as he begins a message from his series in Exodus called "Deliverance". Today we're in chapter twenty seven.

The Ark of the Covenant is the centerpiece of the Tabernacle. Jesus Christ is the centerpiece of our existence and our worship. That's the central truth we'll explore today. Open your Bible to Exodus chapter twenty five.
