Introduction
Text
Israel’s mistakes are be repeated among today’s Christians:
the "mistake”: Israel desired to be like the nations around them.
today’s Christians want to be “be like the world”
sing like the world
live like the world
dress like the world
worship like the world
Israel’s two big mistakes
They wanted to have king like the nations
They copied the way of worship of the Gentiles
Christians today want the same thing:
a system of governed by human will
a system of worship driven by human imagination
The result of Israel’s sins
Worship without God in their midst
Main Points
The Creation of the Sanctuary
How did God instruct Moses in the building of the sanctuary?
First, God gave Moses a pattern
Then, God required that the sanctuary be made according to a pattern shown to Moses
The Purpose of the Pattern
Why make the sanctuary according to the heavenly pattern?
Because God wants to dwell in the midst of His people.
God’s earthly habitation is not just any man-made temple.
It must be a temple “worthy” of GOd’s glorious Presence!
God wants to dwell in the mist of His Church.
That’s why the Church must not be “man-made”!
That’s why the church be patterned after God’s habitation in heaven!
To show us that life was designed to revolve around God alone!
Not on earthly needs and desires...
“do not be like them (gentiles)”
“your Father in heaven knows the things you have need of...”
The heavenly patterns shows us that...
the center of living is God!
the central activity of heaven is worship!
Everyone in heaven works for the glory of God!
the beauty of heaven is holiness!
the law of heaven is the Word of God!
Acquiring the Pattern
How can we acquire the heavenly pattern?
The pattern was “shown” on the Mount
God brought Israel to Mount Sinai
God did not bring Israel through the shorter way to Canaan.
The longer way brought them to the mountain so they will learn to worship God!
The longer way was only made much longer because of the people’s unbelief.
Moses alone “saw” the pattern because Israel would not come near the mountain
God brought us to “Mount Zion”
God brought us to our Mountain
Our Mount Zion is the mystical Body of Christ, the Church
it is governed by Jesus Christ Himself,
it is where angels worship God and obey His commands,
it is where the elect of God are brought in from the world!
God “showed” us the pattern
We “see” the pattern through the Word taught and revealed to us
the new covenant speaks...
do not refuse Him who speaks...
We see the pattern in the lives of God’s men!
Conclusion
We do not need to “conform” to this world, because we have a better and more wonderful “pattern” to follow.
be sober - get self-control
rest your hope - focus on the coming grace of God!
don’t follow the world!
pattern your life to God’s holiness!
knowing that we were redeemed from the world with the precious blood of Christ!
