Song: Amazing Grace (My sins are gone)

Resident reads Hebrews 8: 7-12 and Hebrews 9:15

Prayer: As we gather today in Your Name, Jesus, please bless us with understanding of what You did for us at the cross and what You do for us each and every day. May we always remember Your grace and mercy with gratitude. Teach us to live in Your New Covenant. We pray in Your Name, Jesus. Amen.

INTRODUCTION: What is a covenant?

Testament is another word for covenant, Old and New Testaments really could be called First and Second Covenants

This retreat is about how the Hebrew or First Covenant is fulfilled in the Covenant we have in Jesus Christ. We will be talking about Moses, the tabernacle, the sacrifices under the Hebrew covenant, and aspects of the Torah, or Law of Moses, comparing them to the covenant we have today in Christ.

A covenant could be called a treaty or a contract but is more than that, for it is...

a holy agreement between God and human beings a series of promises and commands mostly initiated by the action of God and received by humans

I EXAMPLES OF COVENANTS Covenant with Noah not to destroy the world by water, to have seedtime

and harvest and the seasons, for humans to be able to eat meat. Sign of the covenant was the rainbow.

Covenant with Abram was for the Promised seed (Isaac), Promised Land of Israel, and Promised Blessing through descendent, Jesus Christ; to be the Lord's chosen people. Sign of the covenant was circumcision of eight day old males.

Covenant with Moses was the Law, the Torah, a way of worship, a way of justice, a way of ordering life as a community under the rule of God. Sign of the covenant was the Ten Commandments and the Tabernacle.

Covenant with David that his descendent would rule forever. Sign of the covenant was Jesus the Messiah.

New Covenant was the promise of God to forgive sins and remember them no more, to write His Law on the heart and not on stone, for all God's people to know Him. Sign of the covenant is baptism.

II Components of the Covenant: Promises and demands for obedience Blessings for obedience and curses for disobedience An exchange of gifts A blood sacrifice A ritual meal of bread and wine

III Personal Witness of What the New Covenant Means to YouConclusion: Theme of the retreat is the New Covenant, which fulfilled all earlier ones. It is the one under which we live in relationship with God, a covenant of grace and mercy.

Talk Two: How the Lord's Supper Fulfills the PassoverSong: Jesus MessiahResident reads I Corinthians 11: 23-26

Prayer: Father, You delivered Your Hebrew children from the hand of Pharaoh and the Destroyer. You sent Jesus to deliver us from our Enemy, Satan. The Blood of the Lamb worked deliverance both times. You remind us every time we receive communion of that deliverance. May we live it out in our daily lives. Through Christ our Lord we pray. Amen.

INTRODUCTION: The Passover Seder The central event in the story of Israel is the Exodus from Egypt. The central event in the Exodus is the Passover, the death of the first born

of Egypt and the sparing of the faithful Hebrews. Sign of the Passover is the Blood of the Lamb on the doorposts and lintels

and the communal meal. Key parts of the meal are unleavened bread, lamb, bitter herbs, salt

water, egg, parsley, a nut and apple/honey mixture that resembles mortar, and wine.

The service is a recalling of the mighty acts of God to deliver His people from bondage.

Its observance is commanded upon the people of Israel from generation to generation

I The Lord's Supper: Instituted by Jesus Christ Himself as He and His disciples observed the

Passover before His betrayal He took the bread, broke it, and gave it to the disciples saying, " Take, eat,

this is My Body broken for you, do this in rembrance of Me." He took the cup of redemption and gave it to the disciples saying, " This is

the New Covenant in My Blood for the forgiveness of sins. Drink this in remembrance of Me."

We also look to Jesus' words in John's Gospel where He declares that He is the Bread of Life and whoever eats His flesh and drinks His Blood has eternal life.

The Lord's Supper is commanded for Christians to observe from generation to generation.


Talk Guidelines

There are many levels of meaning of the Lord's Supper: it is called an ordinance, a sacrament, holy communion, the Eucharist or Great Thanksgiving, a means of grace for faithful believers. It is called a memorial service, a communal feast, a way of drawing near to God, a means of receiving personal strength and renewal, a healing and converting sacrament, a representation of the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.

II A Fulfilling Service "Christ our Passover Lamb has been sacrifice, therefore let us keep the

feast." Jesus Christ's Blood is the Blood of the Lamb that ratified the New

Covenant for us, that paid the debt of our sin, that redeemed us out of the hand of the enemy, that cleansed us from sin.

"What can wash away our sin,nothing but the Blood of Jesus, O,precious is the flow that made me white as snow, no other fount I know, nothing but the Blood of Jesus."

The Lord's Supper celebrates the Great Exchange Jesus made for us on the cross:

He took our death and gave us His life. He was broken so we could be healed, He was rejected so we could be accepted by God He took our sin and gave us His righteousness He was condemned so we could be justified. Communion celebrates the Christian Passover, Jesus being our Lamb of

God who was slain to take away the sins of the worldIII Personal Witness: What does holy communion mean to you?CONCLUSION: When we eat the bread and drink the wine of holy communion we renew our covenant with God, the New Covenant of the forgiveness of sins.

PRAYER: Lord God, thank you for reaching out to us in love and mercy to restore Your relationship with us. We praise and honor You for Your great kindness toward us. Give us Your grace always to live in this New Covenant. Through Christ our Lord we pray. Amen.DISCUSSION QUESTION: What does holy communion mean to you?CONTINUE APPLICATION ACTIVITY

Talk Three: How Jesus Christ Fulfills Moses and the Prophets

Song: Days of Elijah

Resident reads Hebrews 3: 1-6

Prayer: We praise You, Lord God, for Your great deliverance You worked through Your servant Moses. We sing to You for You have triumphed gloriously over evil. Even more, we praise You for the greatest victory of all, when You raised up Your Son our Lord Jesus Christ in His glorious resurrection. All glory and honor be Yours, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Introduction: Moses was the Liberator, Leader, Deliverer of Israel

called by God to go boldly to Pharaoh and demand the release of the people

used by God to execute the ten plague judgments against the gods of Egypt.

led the people out of Egypt to the Promised Land was used by God to demonstrate His power against Pharaoh at the Red

Sea used by God in many miracles during the journey to the Promised Land received the ten commandments instituted the system of tabernacle worship of God instituted the legal system of Israel wrote the first five books of the Hebrew Bible a model of faithfulness to God

I Prediction of a Great Prophet by Moses God promised Moses that God would raise up a prophet like Moses, that

God's people had to listen to that great prophet. Peter declared that this promise was fulfilled in Jesus Christ, who is

prophet, priest and King. God in the past spoke through His prophets, but now has spoken through

His Son whom He appointed heir of all things.II Comparison of Jesus Christ with Moses Both were faithful to God


Talk Guidelines

Moses was appointed to the tabernacle house of God, but Jesus was appointed to the greater house of all who believe, gentiles and Jews.

Moses was faithful as a servant of God, Jesus was faithful as the Son of God. Moses' miracles and teachings pointed to Christ: the Passover, the

deliverance at the Red Sea, the provision of manna and water from the Rock. Both ministries point to the power of God to rescue and redeem out of

bondage. III Personal witness of how the story of Moses has helped you understand what

Jesus Christ has done for you. Conclusion: Moses the Liberator points to Jesus Christ, whose Truth sets us free.

Prayer: You have invited us to come to You, Jesus, with our burdens, so that You can give us rest. You have promised a rest for the people of God. Give us rest from our enemies, rest from our burdens, rest in Your care, in Your Name we pray. Amen.

PRAYER: Lord God, thank you for reaching out to us in love and mercy to restore Your relationship with us. We praise and honor You for Your great kindness toward us. Give us Your grace always to live in this New Covenant. Through Christ our Lord we pray.

Talk Four: How God's Rest Fulfills the Sabbath

Song: Just a Closer Walk with Thee

Resident reads Hebrews 4:1-11

Prayer: You have invited us to come to You, Jesus, with our burdens, so that You can give us rest. You have promised a rest for the people of God. Give us rest from our enemies, rest from our burdens, rest in Your care, in Your Name we pray. Amen.

I There is a lot in the Bible about rest the seventh day of creation in which God rested the seventh year rest of the people of Israel the Jubilee or 50th year of the freedom of slaves and redemption of

property the resting of the land of Israel from war rest from one's enemies the rest of faith and repentance the weekly day of rest, the Sabbath

II Jesus Christ is Lord of the Sabbath the Sabbath was made for humanity, not humanity for the Sabbath the Sabbath was not to be a burden but a delight, a true rest in the Lord Jesus healed on the Sabbath Jesus is not against the principle of taking a rest in the Lord for a day of

worship and enjoying God and His world. III What is the Rest of God?

Isaiah 30:15 "In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength"

Psalm 46:1 "Be still (cease striving) and know that I am God." Jeremiah 6:16 "Stand at the crossroads and look, ask for the ancient

paths, ask where the good way is and walk in it, and you will have rest for your souls."

Matthew 11: 28 "Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."

Revelation 14:13 "Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on they will rest from their labors and their deeds follow them."


Talk Guidelines

The rest of God is Shalom, the peace of God which passes all understanding, a deep trust in God, a total relying on God, letting God fight your battles, and finding your hiding place of security in Him.

The rest of God is not just one day a week but it can be a whole way of living every moment of every day. Leaning on Jesus, taking His yoke on you and learning from Him. It is walking with Jesus in the power of the Holy Spirit.

We enter this rest by drawing near to Jesus and surrendering our lives to Him in trust.

IV Personal Witness: How have you experienced resting in God? PRAYER: Lord God, thank you for reaching out to us in love and mercy to restore

Your relationship with us. We praise and honor You for Your great kindness toward us. Give us Your grace always to live in this New Covenant. Through Christ our Lord we pray. AmenDISCUSSION: How have you experienced resting in God?APPLICATION ACTIVITY: Continue to work on today's group project.

Talk Six: How Jesus Fulfills the Holy Place of the Tabernacle I

Song: SanctuaryResident reads Hebrews 9:1-2Prayer: Father God, please give us understanding of the spiritual meanings of the earthly tabernacle of the Old Covenant, ways we can draw near to You. Teach us Your lessons from Your Word, we pray through Jesus Christ, who became flesh and tabernacle among us. Amen.

Introduction: The Tabernacle as a type of our journey of faith with Jesus Types are events, persons, and objects from the Hebrew Bible that help

point us to Christ and teach us spiritual lessons The Tabernacle was a building designed for the worship of Israel, made of

several parts There was one entrance to the outer courtyard, showing that Jesus Christ

is the way, the truth, and the life, and no one comes to the Father but by Him.

In front of the entrance was the altar of sacrifice, showing that all must come to Christ by personally receiving the benefits of the sacrifice of Christ on the cross.

Next, there was the great basin or laver, where the priests washed themselves. This is a type for water baptism, which is a cleansing from sin, a baptism into the Body of Christ, and a baptism into service.

There then was a building with two rooms. We are going to talk in depth in the next two talks about the first room, the Holy Place

I Holiness Be holy as I am holy, says the Lord Holiness means total dedication, being set apart for the use of the Lord,

consecration "Take my life and let it be consecrated, Lord to Thee."

II The Showbread twelve loaves of bread, one for each of the twelve tribes, replenished

Talk Seven: How Jesus Fulfills the Holy Place of the Tabernacle II

Song: Better is One DayResident reads John 6:32-35, 8:12, 9: 4-5Prayer: Lord Jesus, You are both the Bread of Life and the Light of the World. Teach us more about who You are through the symbols of the tabernacle, as we pray in Jesus' Name

INTRO: Review of the last talk on the tabernacle, a portable worship center during the Exodus from Egypt that was eventually set up more or less permanently at a place called Shiloh.

Parts of the tabernacle: the one gate, the bronze altar of sacrifice, the laver of washing, the holy place, the holy of holies.

The progression from the sacrifice to the cleansing, to worship, to intimacy with a Holy God.

This follows the progression in the Christian life toward a closer walk with God, and in worship from more exuberant praise to intimate adoration.

I The Holy Place had two more worship items. We will first talk about the lampstand

(Show the Menorah) this is an example of a lampstand, which was just used by our Messianic brothers in their celebration of Chanukah, the feast of lights.

This light was to be kept lit at all times. Jesus is called the Light of the World. The Word of God is called a lamp unto our feet and a light unto our path. Jesus even called believers the light of the world, and told us not to hide

our light under a bushel but to let our light so shine that all can see our good works and bring glory to our Father in Heaven.

II The Golden Altar This was located right before the great curtain covering the entrance to

the Holy of Holies On this altar was burned pure incense, raising a smoke and an aroma

pleasing to the Lord, Especially on the Day of the Atonement when the High Priest would enter

the Holy of Holies with the blood sacrifice for the sin of Israel, he would

send up the smoke of incense before him as he entered into the presence of a Holy God.

Gold denotes royalty, incense denotes praise. Constant praise comes up from us, called to be a royal priesthood, before

a holy God. III Lessons

God is holy The entrance of God's Word brings light God is the light of our lives Praise is the way into the presence of God. As the priesthood of all believers, we are to offer up the sacrifice of praise

before God.IV Personal Witness: How the Lord has brought His light to your life and how you have learned to enter into His presence with praise.PRAYER: Lord God, thank you for reaching out to us in love and mercy to restore Your relationship with us. We praise and honor You for Your great kindness toward us. Give us Your grace always to live in this New Covenant. Through Christ our Lord we pray. AmenDISCUSSION QUESTION: Share about your practice of praising the Lord.APPLICATION ACTIVITY: Continue to prepare a skit, song, poem, or poster about the lessons you learned about the Christian walk from the Tabernacle.

Talk Eight: How the Cross Fulfills the Mercy Seat

Song: Mighty to SaveResident reads Hebrews 9: 11-14Prayer: Lord, when I behold the wonderful cross, on which, You, the Prince of Glory died, my richest gain I count but loss and pour contempt on all my pride. Were the whole realm of nature mine that were an offering far too small. Love so amazing, so divine, demands my soul, my life, my all. I worship You. Amen.INTRODUCTION:

We continue with our look at the Tabernacle of Israel Inside the fence there is a tent of meeting with two rooms, one is the holy

place we looked at earlier, with the table of showbread, the lampstand, and the golden altar of incense. Only the priests could go into this room

At the end of the room was a thick curtain, also called the veil, which separated the furthest room, called the Holy of Holies. It was in this room that the very presence of a Holy God would dwell.

I Description of the Holy of Holies No natural or artificial light was in this room. The only light was from the

presence of God. The only piece of furniture was the ark of the covenant- a box made of

gopher wood covered inside and out with pure gold, with a lid on it. The lid was called the mercy seat, and on it were placed two golden

cherubim angels with wings extended across the lid. It was between the wings that the glory of God dwelt.

Inside the ark were the two stone tablets of the Ten Commandments, the jar of manna, and Moses's rod which had budded and produced almonds.

The room was set off by a thick curtain that extended top to bottom Only the high priest could come into this room once a year on the Day of

Atonement, known in the Jewish calendar as Yom Kippur.II The Mercy Seat and Remedy for Sin

God is holy and God hates sin God is love and mercy also The justice and holiness of God demands punishment for sin The mercy of God seeks out redemption and forgiveness. In God, mercy

wins out over justice.


Talk Guidelines

Because Jesus had not yet died on the cross, the sin of the people had to be covered each year in a way that looked forward to the complete redemption Jesus gave.

Thus, once a year, the high priest, after sacrificing for his own sin, brought a sacrifice of blood behind the curtain to be sprinkled on the mercy seat, pointing to the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross.

III The Sacrifice of the Cross Without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins. Jesus as the sinless Son of God, fully man and fully God, offered Himself as

the offering for sin, to die on the cross, shedding His blood to wash away our sins

Jesus not only died but rose again for us and offered up His own blood sacrifice in heaven to give eternal redemption for all who trust in Him

This Blood sacrifice established the New Covenant which accomplished the forgiveness of sins and intimacy with God

Communion celebrates this sacrifice:"This is the Blood of the New Covenant poured out for the forgiveness of sins." When we drink the cup in faith we are reaffirming that the Blood of Christ washed away our sins.

The wonderful cross is the mercy seat of God. All who come to eternal life must come the very same way, through faith in Jesus Christ who died on the cross.

Conclusion: Personal witness of how the cross of Jesus Christ changed your life.

PRAYER: Lord God, thank you for reaching out to us in love and mercy to restore Your relationship with us. We praise and honor You for Your great kindness toward us. Give us Your grace always to live in this New Covenant. Through Christ our Lord we pray. AmenDISCUSSION: How has the cross of Christ changed your life.APPLICATION ACTIVITY: Continue working on your group project for today.

Talk Nine: How Jesus Fulfills Entering the Holy of Holies

Song: Amazing Love

Resident reads Hebrews 10: 19-25

Prayer: Loving God, You opened a new and living way into Your very throne room through the death and resurrection of Your Son our Savior Jesus Christ. May we come boldly to Your throne of grace to find help in our time of need. We pray in Jesus' Name. Amen.

INTRODUCTION:

At the entrance of the Holy of Holies in the tabernacle was a thick curtain called the veil. Absolutely no one was allowed to go past that veil into the presence of God except for the high priest once a year on the Day of Atonement.

It was very dangerous to go into the holy of holies. Unauthorized entrance or entrance by someone who had not dealt with sin meant instant death.

Around the high priest's waist was tied a long rope and on the bottom of his robe were little bells that tinkled. If the priests in holy place stopped hearing the bells, it meant the high priest had been struck dead and had to be pulled outside.

It was a fearful thing to come into the presence of a holy God. Even Isaiah trembled when he saw the LORD in the temple, crying out, " Woe is me, I am undone!" The presence of God has a way of bringing us to the end of ourselves.

I. The Tearing of the Veil Matthew's Gospel tells us that when Jesus died a number of things

happened: the earth shook, many of those who died in faith were raised from the dead and walked around Jerusalem, and the curtain in the temple separating the Holy of Holies was ripped from top to bottom.

Jesus' cry of triumph from the cross was " It is Finished!" which means "Mission Accomplished" or "Paid in Full!"

The tearing of the veil meant that the way into the presence of God was now open. It meant that God's anger at sin was satisfied, His justice fulfilled, and His mercy free to reach out to anyone who came in faith to Him.

II. Meaning for Us Today A new and living way has been made for us to come close to God We are urged to come boldly to the throne of grace to find help in time of

need God is not against you, He is reaching out in love and mercy to save, to

heal, to set free, and to restore. Truly Jesus Christ is a friend of sinners, and God is not mad at us any

more. His mercies never end and they are new every morning, great is His faithfulness.

Anyone at any time can call out to God through Jesus Christ for help, can come into the presence of God for help, can fellowship with God.

There is no separation anymore, the way is open!III Personal Witness: How have you experienced this new and living way to come to the throne of grace and how has God helped you in time of need?

PRAYER: Lord God, thank you for reaching out to us in love and mercy to restore Your relationship with us. We praise and honor You for Your great kindness toward us. Give us Your grace always to live in this New Covenant. Through Christ our Lord we pray. Amen

Talk Ten: How Jesus Fulfills the Sacrifices of the Old Covenant

Song: Alleluia, He is ComingResident reads Scripture: Romans 12:1-2Prayer: Lord, now You call us to bring to You ourselves as a Living Sacrifice, Holy and Acceptable to You. Grant us grace to make our life a song of praise to You. In Jesus' Name we pray.

Introduction: The Old Covenant Sacrificial System An elaborate system of sacrifices was established in the tabernacle and

temple worship under the Old Covenant Principle: One never comes before God in worship empty-handed The tendency of humans is to worship God by offering to Him something

precious. Types of sacrifices: for sin, for guilt, for fellowship,for thanksgiving. There were burnt offerings, offerings of grain and wine The offering was to be perfect, God would not accept anything second

rate or blemished. One was to bring the best to God. Bulls, rams, goats, doves, grain, wine were what was offered. The blood sacrifice of animals was to cover sins, showing the costliness of

sin and pointing forward in time to the sacrifice of the Lamb of God.I The Sacrifice of the Lamb of God

A Lamb without blemish or spot, sinless, perfectly obedient to God Abram offered his own son, Isaac to God and God redeemed Isaac, but

God offered His Only Son Jesus Christ as the blood sacrifice for the New Covenant

This is a sacrifice made once and for all to redeem all who enter the New Covenant by Faith

It is redemption (buying back out of slavery), propitiation ( paying the cost of justice against sin), emancipation ( buying the freedom of those who were bound), justification ( declaring not guilty), reconciliation ( bridging the gap between sinful humanity and a righteous God), and atonement ( washing away sin).

Truly we can say it was a wonderful cross!II Our Sacrifice

Presenting ourselves to God as a living sacrifice


Talk Guidelines

A broken and contrite heart, being honest and humble before God The sacrifice of praise The sacrifice of obedience
