This document summarizes Lesson 7 which discusses God renewing the covenant with Israel after delivering them from slavery in Egypt. It describes how God showed grace by redeeming Israel and tenderly guiding them to a new relationship. The signing of the covenant took place at Mount Sinai, where God proclaimed the Ten Commandments and the covenant was ratified. Obedience was required to remain within the covenant terms, but salvation ultimately comes through faith alone, not works. The sanctuary and its rituals symbolized God's plan of redemption through the Messiah to come.

We know the dictionary definition of worship (a feeling, or devotion to a deity), and we have read John 4:24, "God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth"; but, what does the Bible teach us about the subject of worship? This is a series of lessons that gets to the heart of worship and what it really means for Christians.

EVANGELISM 101: Lesson 1 - Biblical Foundations of EvangelismFrancis Hernandez
For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!” (Romans 10:13-15)
"It (Evangelism) comes from the same Greek word for gospel (euangelion) and means, literally, “gospeling.” When we evangelize we are “gospeling” — we are spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ." - https://www.ligonier.org/learn/devotionals/what-evangelism/
Every Christian is called to do the divine task of evangelism. Evangelism is a task not just for the select churches, or for the evangelists or pastors. This is Lesson 1 of EVANGELISM 101 Series. Given last April 23, 2021 at HOPE Christian Fellowship in Guinobatan, Calapan City, Oriental Mindoro, Philippines by Ptr. Francis S. Hernandez.

In the new life we are washed from our sins. in the new life we put to death the old man and put on the new man. In the new life we died and our life is hidden with Christ in God. In the new life we were brought back from death in sin.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

3. Preparing the covenant:
God gets close to humans
God redeems humankind
Signing the covenant:
Sinai: commandments and symbols
Obligations of the covenant:
Obedience
Commitment
The relationship between God and Israel had
deteriorated after 400 years of slavery.
As usual, God took the initiative and restored
their relationship by renewing the covenant He
had made with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Then the people of Israel were responsible for
fulfilling their part of the covenant.
4. “You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore
you on eagles’ wings and brought you to Myself.” (Exodus 19:4)
God showed grace to Israel by liberating them from
harsh slavery, and tenderly leading them to a new
covenant relationship with Him.
There are two illustrations in Deuteronomy that
represent how God treated Israel:
Dt. 32:10-12. Like an eagle that carries its chicks
high. Then it drops them, so they learn to fly. If
they cannot, the eagle carries them in its wings
again.
Dt. 1:31. Like a father that guides his son by the
hand and protects him.
We need God to
tenderly guide us and
protect us until our
relationship with Him is
fully mature.
5. “You in Your mercy have led forth the people whom You have redeemed; You
have guided them in Your strength to Your holy habitation.” (Exodus 15:13)
God’s first step to help the people of Israel was to redeem
them from slavery (Exodus 6:6-7).
A redeemer was someone who helped a close relative who
had to sell their land or could not pay for their debts and
had become a slave. This redeemer bought the land back or
liberated the person from slavery.
God was that redeemer for Israel. To redeem them, He had to
“come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians”
(Exodus 3:8).
What price did God pay to redeem Israel [and ourselves]?
He came down to this world and became human. He paid for
our sins by dying on the cross (John 6:51; Ephesians 1:7).
6. “According to the law Christ Himself gave, the forfeited
inheritance was ransomed by the nearest of kin. Jesus
Christ laid off His royal robe, His kingly crown, and clothed
His divinity with humanity, in order to become a substitute
and surety for humanity, that dying in humanity He might
by His death destroy him who had the power of death. He
could not have done this as God, but by coming as man
Christ could die. By death He overcame death.”
E.G.W. (SDA Bible Commentary, book 7, note on Hebrews 2, p. 925)
7. The signing of the covenant is found in Exodus 19-24:
1. God led Israel to mount Sinai (19:1-2)
2. He proposed His covenant to them (19:3-6)
3. The people of Israel accepted the covenant (19:7-8)
4. They had to consecrate themselves for three days,
and to set limits around the mount so no one would
come too close to God’s presence (19:9-25)
5. God came down and proclaimed the Ten
Commandments (20:1-17)
6. Moses was chosen as the mediator to close the
covenant (20:18-21)
7. The rules of the covenant were detailed (20:22-23:22)
8. The covenant was ratified before 70 elders, and “the
blood of the covenant” was sprinkled on the people
(24)
8. God commanded Israel to build a sanctuary for Him,
so they could better understand the terms and the
meaning of the covenant (Exodus 25:8).
God used the sanctuary and its rites as a symbol of
heavenly truths: the plan of Redemption.
This redemption went beyond the liberation from
Egyptian slavery. It pointed to the Messiah who
would carry our sins on Him and die like the
sacrificed animals did.
This is the true meaning and purpose of the
Everlasting Covenant. It is the salvation that the
Lord offers to the fallen humanity.
9. “And it shall be that if you earnestly obey My commandments which
I command you today, to love the Lord your God and serve Him
with all your heart and with all your soul.” (Deuteronomy 11:13)
Obedience is key in the covenant. The people of Israel had to obey God
even before Sinai: they had to spread blood on the doorposts and to
and get out of Egypt.
If obedience is necessary to stay within the covenant terms, does
that mean that we are saved by our obedience?
Salvation is by faith alone. Obedience is just a result of true faith
(Rom. 3:20, 24; Rev. 14:12).
Obedience helps us grow spiritually, mentally, and
morally (Rom. 7:7). God can use us to proclaim the
Gospel to the nations thanks to our obedience.
10. The people of Israel had good intentions, but they did not do
everything God had commanded. Why?
Because they tried to obey by their own effort. Our own effort is
like “filthy rags” before God (Isaiah 64:6).
They were missing a key ingredient: faith (Hebrews
4:2). After some time, they began to believe that
strictly obeying the Law (if that’s even possible) would
make them worthy of Salvation.
It is not our righteousness that saves us, but God’s.
When we accept this by faith, He works in us “to will
and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.”
(Philippians 2:13 NIV).
11. “Since we are sinful, unholy, we cannot perfectly
obey the holy law. We have no righteousness of our
own with which to meet the claims of the law of
God. But Christ has made a way of escape for us. He
lived on earth amid trials and temptations such as
we have to meet. He lived a sinless life. He died for
us, and now He offers to take our sins and give us
His righteousness. If you give yourself to Him, and
accept Him as your Saviour, then, sinful as your life
may have been, for His sake you are accounted
righteous. Christ’s character stands in place of your
character, and you are accepted before God just as if
you had not sinned.” E.G.W. (Steps to Christ, cp. 7, p. 62)
