A HOLY GOD, A HOLY SPACE, A HOLY PEOPLE

Exodus 25-30; 35:4-40:33

Three surprising things about the tabernacle:
1. The fact that there was a tabernacle
2. The nature of the tabernacle
3. The current absence of the tabernacle

What do we learn about God from the tabernacle?
God desires to be with his people!
God is humble and unique.
God is not demanding or unreasonable in his requests.
God comes to his people to serve them, not to be served.

What difference does learning about the tabernacle make in my life today? Begs the questions:
Do I really want the presence of God in my life?
Where will I take the presence of God with my life?
