#149: The Ten Words

The Ten Words

by Richard Shields

Welcome back to the podcast!

We return to the book of Exodus this morning and find the children of Israel encamped around Mt. Sinai, preparing to come before God and receive the 10 Commandments. As we begin our study of this foundational law in the life of God’s people, we too prepare to come into the presence of God to worship Him in His glory and grace. We begin by reading Exodus 19:16-19, where we are confronted by the majesty, power, and holiness of our Almighty God.

“On the morning of the third day, there was thunder and lightning and a thick cloud on the mountain and a very loud trumpet blast so that all the people in the camp trembled. Then Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet God, and they took their stand at the foot of the mountain. Now Mount Sinai was wrapped in smoke because the Lord had descended on it in fire. The smoke of it went up like the smoke of a kiln, and the whole mountain trembled greatly. And as the sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder, Moses spoke, and God answered him in thunder.”

The scripture reading for this lesson was 1 Peter 2:9-12 read by Matthew Jang!
