2 Grace and peace to you from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 2 Thessalonians 2
I just finished reading chapter 38 in the book of Exodus and realized something I had not realized before. All the gold, silver and bronze that the Israelites used for the Tabernacle were given to them by the Egyptians, As the Israelites were leaving Egypt they asked the Egyptians for all their gold and silver which the Egyptians did happily give as they did not want another curse to befall on them again.
2 Tell the people that men and women alike are to ask their neighbors for articles of silver and gold.” Exodus 11:2
Later while journeying through the wilderness God tells Moses to construct a Tabernacle, some would say this is the first church, to be built for the Israelites. God asked Moses to tell the people to donate what gold and silver and cloth and hides towards this endeavor and so they did. So all that stuff the Egyptians gave to the Israelites was used in the construction of the Tabernacle. Our God is a great God.
Remember:
16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16
God bless all that read this with His love, light, grace, mercy, and wisdom. In the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. Amen
