Only by filling our cleansed hearts with the abiding presence of our LORD’S Spirit and Word can we avoid the re-contamination that seeks to ruin the redemptive work of God in our lives. The relationship between Torah and Gospel is clearly seen in this week’s study:
This parashah records the personal revelation of God to Abram (later, Abraham) from his call to leave Ur to the destruction of Sodom. As a result, it is the paradigm of intimate relationship between God and his people. It is a template for our lives today.
I hear many people, Jews and Christians alike, calling the festivals and assemblies of Leviticus 23 “Jewish Holidays.” And while I agree it is the Jews who reverently honor these Holy days, it is the voice of the Lord, who poignantly declares; “These are my feasts.”
The time of accountability. What a confusing time in life when one is saying goodbye to childhood and embracing the blessings of becoming an adult.
