Bible StudyDon't just take our word for it . . . take His! We would encourage you to spend time examining the following Scriptures that shaped this sermon:Sermon NotesBig IdeaThe Tabernacle shows us that God desires to dwell with His people — and that desire is ultimately fulfilled in Jesus Christ.1. Participation — A Glad InvitationBefore giving building instructions, God invited the people to contribute materials (Exodus 25:2).They gave what God had already provided (Exodus 12).Giving was voluntary — “from every man whose heart moves him.”Covenant generosity flows from joy, not compulsion.As Paul the Apostle writes in Second Corinthians 9:7, “God loves a cheerful giver.”ApplicationEverything we have is from God.Generosity is not the duty of a slave, but the privilege of a lover.If joy is missing, examine the heart — not just the habit.2. Pattern — Nearness and HolinessThe structure of the Tabernacle (courtyard → holy place → Most Holy Place) reveals two truths:God Is NearHis presence dwelt among His people.The Ark symbolized His throne on earth.Covenant means relationship — not distance.God Is HolyAccess was limited and required sacrifice.His purity creates a tension for sinful people.Nearness is a gift — not something to approach casually.ApplicationCome to God joyfully.Come to God reverently.Grace produces both confidence and humility.3. Fulfillment — The Person and Work of JesusThe Tabernacle pointed forward to Christ.In Gospel of John 1:14 we read:“The Word became flesh and dwelt among us.”Literally — He “tabernacled” among us.Jesus is:The true meeting place of heaven and earth.The fulfillment of the Temple.The presence of God in fullness.After His resurrection and ascension, His presence comes to us through the Holy Spirit — not as a replacement for Jesus, but as the living connection to Him.Discussion Questions1. Is generosity a joyful practice for you? Why or why not?2. How do different worship styles emphasize either God's nearness or holiness? How can worship emphasize both?3. Is the Holy Spirit a substitute for Jesus? Why or why not?4. Read Ephesians 2:19-22. How is Paul using the Temple metaphor? What might that look like today in the Christian Life? Hint: the "you" in v. 22 is plural.Questions?Do you have a question about today's sermon? Email Randy Forrester ().

2026-03-01 Exodus: God with Us (Scott Warner) by Scott Warner

Happy Family Day weekend! What are some of your favourite promises of God? I would love to know. Please email me at info@templebaptistchurch.ca. This Sunday, we'll look at Exodus 6 as Pastor Kyle unpacks God's promise of deliverance to His people, the Israelites.

A direct route to the promised land would have only taken 10 days, not 40 years. Why send the people through the wilderness, then? God wanted to both A) humble, and B) test his people. Would they be loyal to him or not? He does the same with us today.

Pharaoh refused to obey God's command to let the Israelites go, asking, “Who is this Yahweh, that I should obey him?” He's about to find out. Ten plagues (or “strikes”) will reveal his sovereignty over all the gods of the Egyptians and over every facet of creation. Even in judgment, there are numerous opportunities for mercy available to all who choose to fear and trust the LORD.

Exodus, God's People in a Dangerous World: Charles Yu | February 8, 2026

Bible StudyDon't just take our word for it . . . take His! We would encourage you to spend time examining the following Scriptures that shaped this sermon: .Sermon Notes1. Grace – God saves first“I bore you on eagles' wings” (v.4)Relationship begins with rescue, not achievement2. Obedience – God shapes our livesNot cheap grace, not legalismGod's commands lead to flourishingEmpowered by the Spirit3. Vocation – God sends us“A kingdom of priests” (v.6)Represent God to the world & the world to GodDiscussion Questions1) Does every human being need to be rescued in order to enjoy God's love?2) Are you more tempted by cheap grace or legalism?3) Why is the Holy Spirit critical for obedience?4) Define the priestly vocation.  Give an example of how you live out your priestly vocation.Questions?Do you have a question about today's sermon?

Moses must be feeling good after gathering the elders of Israel, telling them of Yahweh's impending deliverance, and seeing them respond in worship. But Pharaoh has different plans. He doesn't acknowledge Yahweh, he accuses the Hebrews of laziness, and he doubles their workload. The people groan to Moses in despair, and he openly accuses God of evil. God's response is to say, “Step back and watch what I do next – for I AM a covenant keeping God.”

Exodus 1 ends with the recognition that Israel needs a deliverer, and Exodus 2 begins with the birth of that deliverer. But before Moses can save anyone, he himself needs to be saved from near certain death. In the eighty years that follow, God uses both the miraculous and the mundane to prepare him to partner with Yahweh in the stunning rescue of God's people.

Have you ever been minding your own business and then God unexpectedly showed up? How did He get your attention? Moses was tending sheep when God spoke to Him from the burning bush and told Moses to go back to Egypt to tell Pharaoh to let God's people go. This is what we will be studying from Exodus 3 this week. May we all be ready and expecting our next encounter with God!

The beginning of Exodus sets the scene. The Pharaoh has turned on the Hebrews in his land, and when forced labor doesn't work in getting their allegiance, he turns to killing baby boys. The Hebrews stay faithful to God, however, and He sees them. He's concerned, and He's got a plan to deliver them.

Countless individuals have postulated that the Biblical record of the exodus of the children of Israel could not have occurred, therefore completely discounting most of the ancient record.  The problem is that there's an abundant amount of evidence: historical, archaeological and many infallible proofs, that demand to be looked at; enough for any doubter to reexamine the Bible with a different set of eyes.

Bible StudyDon't just take our word for it . . . take His! We would encourage you to spend time examining the following Scriptures that shaped this sermon: .Sermon Notes:I. The Fairness of God's JudgmentA. Our concern for fairnessWe instinctively ask: “Do they deserve judgment?”Judgment must be fair, just, and true.B. Pharaoh and Egypt's guiltPharaoh's policy: murder of Hebrew boys (Exodus 1).Enslavement and oppression of Israel.God's response: “Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap.” (Galatians 6:7 ESV)The death of the firstborn = not random, but reaping what was sown.C. The hardening of Pharaoh's heartSometimes Pharaoh hardens his own heart; other times God does.Pharaoh's rebellion becomes irreversible — God confirms his self-chosen path.God's judgment is never arbitrary, always morally deserved.II. The Realms of God's JudgmentA. Judgment in both visible and spiritual realmsExodus 12:12 — God executes judgment “on all the gods of Egypt.”Not only Pharaoh and Egypt, but their false gods are judged.B. The spiritual dimensionEach plague confronts an Egyptian deity (e.g., darkness = judgment on Re, the sun god).Ephesians 6:12 — our struggle is not just “against flesh and blood.”C. Implications for usConflict perspective: our true enemy is spiritual, not human.Ultimate justice: final judgment must also occur in the spiritual realm — and that belongs to God alone.Christ's victory:The cross = God's judgment on “principalities and powers.”Revelation 20 — final judgment, evil cast down forever.III. Protection from God's JudgmentA. The universality of judgmentBoth Egyptians and Israelites were under threat.Only protection: homes marked with the blood of the lamb (Exodus 12:13).Not ethnicity, morality, or family — but faith in God's provision.B. The necessity of faith and obedienceBelief must lead to action.They didn't discuss the lamb's symbolism — they applied the blood.C. The principle of substitutionThe lamb dies in place of the firstborn.“One life for another.”God's mercy through a substitute.D. Fulfillment in Jesus ChristJohn 1:29 — “Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!”Jesus = true Passover Lamb — spotless, no broken bones (John 19:31-33), slain for sinners.His blood is the believer's protection from judgment.God's justice is satisfied; His mercy extended.Conclusion: The Cross Is Our PassoverGod is both Judge and Savior.To our sins he says: “this kind of offense cannot be tolerated in my Kingdom.”Yet God Himself provides the way — through the blood of His Son.At the Cross, justice is satisfied, grace is extended.Because of the Lamb, God's judgment passes over us forever.Discussion Questions:Does a God who judges evil make you uncomfortable? Why or why not?In what ways does it help us to understand that God executes judgment in the spiritual realm?What is the difference between making moral judgments and being "judgmental"? How does the idea of humanity being universally under God's judgment eliminate judgmentalism?How does the Cross of Christ bring together God's judgment and grace?Should we fear God's judgment - why or why not?Questions?Do you have a question about today's sermon?

This Sunday, Pastor Blake reflected on a turning point in Israel's story: their cry for help in the midst of deep suffering. As the Israelites groaned under oppression, God heard, remembered His covenant, and saw their pain. These verses remind us that even when God feels silent, He is not absent. He hears, He remembers, and He is already moving toward redemption.     Want to watch a version of this message? Check out our live broadcast archive at www.declarationchurch.net/live.

Exodus 13:17-22

As we wrap up our look at Moses' calling at the burning bush, we see that he lacks faith and tries to turn God down. This week we will see how a patient, loving God overwhelms Moses with his grace and empowers him to fulfill his calling. Come learn how we too can experience God's grace and live confidently in his strength.
