Time is the one resource equally given and irreversibly spent. Scripture does not command the creation of time. It commands the redemption of time. This indicates loss has already occurred. Time is continually being spent, often without purpose. Have you recently decided to follow Jesus?

This sermon examines the warning in 1 Timothy 4:1 regarding the departure from the faith in the latter times, identifying this apostasy as a specific and already clearly identified threat, an internal threat within the church rather than an unknown or knowable future event. The message argues that this danger manifests through unfaithfulness, characterized by seducing spirits and doctrines of devils, and is seen especially by the rise of the Roman Catholic Church and its departure from the gospel of grace. It further explains that such systems, like that of the Roman Church, become undone by hypocrisy and a seared conscience, leading to unlawful oppression through man-made rules that bind the conscience, such as the examples of forbidding marriage or abstaining from foods. The preacher urges believers to reject these legalistic structures while embracing the positive truth that all creation is good when received with thanksgiving and sanctified by the Word of God. Ultimately, the sermon calls for a balanced response that discerns error through Scripture while maintaining gratitude for God's gifts and avoiding self-righteousness.

This sermon explores the threefold goal of Exodus as revealed in the final chapter: the creation of a new humanity, the dwelling of God among His people, and the constant guidance of the Savior. The preacher argues that redemption is not merely deliverance from sin but a transformative act that makes believers a new creation in Christ, echoing the creation patterns seen in the erection of the tabernacle. The text highlights the crisis of access to God, resolved by Jesus Christ who becomes the true Tabernacle and the place of meeting between the holy God and sinful man through His sacrifice. Finally, the sermon emphasizes the comfort of Christ's perpetual presence, likening the guiding cloud of the wilderness to Jesus' promise to be with His church always, directing believers through the means of grace and the local church toward their final glory.
