Sunday's Sermon, September 25, 2016 Preached by Pastor Julie Keith

Exodus 4:1-17Exodus 4:1 Moshe replied, “But I’m certain they won’t believe me, and they won’t listen to what I say, because they’ll say, ‘Adonai did not appear to you.’” 2 Adonai answered him, “What is that in your hand?” and he said, “A staff.” 3 He said, “Throw it on the ground!” and he threw it on the ground. It turned into a snake, and Moshe recoiled from it. 4 Then Adonai said to Moshe, “Put your hand out and take it by the tail.” He reached out with his hand and took hold of it, and it became a staff in his hand. 5 “This is so that they will believe that Adonai, the God of their fathers, the God of Avraham, the God of Yitz’chak and the God of Ya‘akov, has appeared to you!”

6 Furthermore Adonai said to him, “Now put your hand inside your coat.” He put his hand in his coat; and when he took it out his hand was leprous, as white as snow. 7 Then God said, “Now put your hand back in your coat.” He put his hand back in his coat; and when he took it out, it was as healthy as the rest of his body. 8 “If they won’t believe you or heed the evidence of the first sign, they will be convinced by the second. 9 But if they aren’t persuaded even by both these signs and still won’t listen to what you say, then take some water from the river, and pour it on the ground. The water you take from the river will turn into blood on the dry land.”

10 Moshe said to Adonai, “Oh, Adonai, I’m a terrible speaker. I always have been, and I’m no better now, even after you’ve spoken to your servant! My words come slowly, my tongue moves slowly.” 11 Adonai answered him, “Who gives a person a mouth? Who makes a person dumb or deaf, keen-sighted or blind? Isn’t it I, Adonai? 12 Now, therefore, go; and I will be with your mouth and will teach you what to say.”

13 But he replied, “Please, Lord, send someone else — anyone you want!” 14 At this, Adonai’s anger blazed up against Moshe; he said, “Don’t you have a brother, Aharon the Levi? I know that he’s a good speaker. In fact, here he is now, coming out to meet you; and he’ll be happy to see you. 15 You will speak to him and put the words in his mouth; and I will be with your mouth and his, teaching you both what to do. 16 Thus he will be your spokesman to the people, in effect; for you, he will be a mouth; and for him, you will be like God. 17 Now take this staff in your hand, because you need it to perform the signs.”

Kingdom Culture
Wednesday Nights this Fall

Join Pastor Tara Beth Leach on Wednesday nights this fall as she leads PazNaz through her curriculum Kingdom Culture: The Sermon on the Mount. This series continues this Wednesday at 6:30 pm in Lee Chapel. You can purchase a workbook for $5 from HeBrews on the patio this Sunday.
The Sermon on the Mount is nestled into the Bible's grand narrative and gives the reader a glimpse of what it looks like to live in the already-but-not-yet Kingdom of God. The words of Jesus are piercing, and push the people of God to live the Kingdom life. After studying the Sermon on the Mount, you will discover that Jesus is the ultimate authority for the life of the disciple, and as the people of God, the invitation is to embody the culture of God's Kingdom.
Regular Wednesday evening programming will also be available for children, students, and those with special needs. Contact Melody Bundy with questions at 626.351.2425.
