September 24, 2021
Imagine the worst thunderstorm you’ve ever experienced. Multiply that times a thousand, and you’ll get an idea of what it was like for the children of Israel to be in God’s presence. They were terrified, ashamed, and entirely imperfect. Follow along as Dr. McGee teaches us how the Creator of the Law is the same One who saves us from our inevitable inability to keep it.

Get ready to fight the good fight against legalism in Galatians. When this letter was written, it defended the gospel of Christ from people who wanted to reduce it to rules. Not surprising, Galatians has provided the backbone for several great spiritual revivals around the world. Freedom, we learn, is a serious fight. Allow grace to revolutionize your own life through these seven lessons from Dr. J. Vernon McGee.

God gives Israel what they asked for—the Ten Commandments. Follow along as Dr. McGee warns us not to mix the Law and grace into the same system and teaches us how the Ten Commandments really symbolize mankind’s desperate need for a Savior.

God presents His people with two choices. They could either continue being led by His grace, or they could have an organized list of laws to keep for the rest of their lives. They decide to stick with what they know and choose the Law over grace. Perhaps Israel’s mistake in Exodus 19 isn’t too different from our own choices today. Don’t miss out on God’s grace, friends.

God does not merely give us good advice; He gives us life-changing gospel truth. In Exodus 18, Moses follows the harmless advice of his father-in-law and appoints secondary leaders over the people. Dr. McGee discusses what happens when we follow the wisdom of the world, rather than the instruction of God.

In Exodus 17, we find the children of Israel tested once again in the wilderness with thirst. Follow along as God teaches His people how to find living water through the Rock—Christ Jesus.

We last saw the children of Israel crossing the Red Sea. In Exodus 15, the Song of Moses recounts their trials, their story of redemption, and their thankfulness to God for deliverance. Soon, their joyful songs of praise faded into tired, bitter complaints as they found themselves weary with thirst. Discover how the cross of Christ can turn even life’s bitter “Marah moments” sweet.

What would you do if following God’s direction landed you between 600 Egyptian chariots and the Red Sea? Lose faith? That’s exactly what the Israelites did. Moses reminded his people to be courageous and that “the Lord will fight for you.” See how God kept His promise to fight for Israel and fully delivered them from the Egyptians—this time, for good.

Imagine being able to physically see God directing your steps. It would certainly be easier to follow Him. God gave the children of Israel His visible presence—pillars of cloud and fire—to comfort and guide them along this new journey. Follow along as Dr. McGee covers more about the Passover, the Promised Land, and (surprise) Pharoah’s once-again hardened heart.

While the Passover was a monumental night for those who put their faith in God, it was a tragic night for many Egyptians. Defeated and afraid, Pharoah finally surrendered. Almost instantly, the Israelites were hurried out of the land of Egypt. Their exit was so rushed, they had to eat their unleavened bread on the go. And so, at the end of Exodus 12, we see God’s people—hurried and unprepared—finally leaving Egypt behind.

Get ready to see Christ in the Old Testament. Exodus 12 recounts one of the most important moments in Israel’s history—the Passover, the birth of Israel as a nation. God promised to redeem those who put their faith in His blood alone, and He still keeps that promise today.
