The Lord said to you: It is you who shall be shepherd of my people Israel, you who shall be ruler over Israel.’ So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron; and King David made a covenant with them at Hebron before the Lord, and they anointed David king over Israel. David was thirty years old when he began to reign, [...]

Deuteronomy 5:1-21; 6:4-9 (sermon note: 10-08 sermon note) Moses convened all Israel, and said to them: Hear, O Israel, the statutes and ordinances that I am addressing to you today; you shall learn them and observe them diligently. The Lord our God made a covenant with us at Horeb. Not with our ancestors did the Lord make this covenant, but with us, who are all of us here alive today. The Lord spoke with you face to face at the mountain, out of the fire. (At that time I was standing between the Lord and you to declare to you the words of the Lord; for you [...]

Exodus 1:8-14; 3:1-15 (sermon note: Now a new king arose over Egypt, who did not know Joseph. He said to his people, ‘Look, the Israelite people are more numerous and more powerful than we. Come, let us deal shrewdly with them, or they will increase and, in the event of war, join our enemies and fight against us and escape from the land.’ Therefore they set taskmasters over them to oppress them with forced labor. They built supply cities, Pithom and Rameses, for Pharaoh. But the more they were oppressed, the more they multiplied and spread, so that the Egyptians came to dread the Israelites. The Egyptians [...]

Genesis 2:4b-25 (sermon note: 09-10 sermon note) In the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens, when no plant of the field was yet in the earth and no herb of the field had yet sprung up—for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was no one to till the ground; but a stream would rise from the earth, and water the whole face of the ground— then the Lord God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and the man became a living being. fAnd [...]

Acts 2:1-18 When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place. And suddenly from heaven there came a sound like the rush of a violent wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. Divided tongues, as of fire, appeared among them, and a tongue rested on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other languages, as the Spirit gave them ability. Now there were devout Jews from every nation under heaven living in Jerusalem. And at this sound the crowd gathered and was bewildered, because each one heard them [...]

Genesis 1:1-5 In the beginning when God created the heavens and the earth, the earth was a formless void and darkness covered the face of the deep, while a wind from God swept over the face of the waters.

God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day. —---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our opening verses of Genesis give us the beginning of God’s ordered creation, starting with the creation of [...]

Ecclesiastes 1:1-11; 3:1-17 The words of the Teacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem. Vanity of vanities, says the Teacher,    vanity of vanities! All is vanity. What do people gain from all the toil    at which they toil under the sun? A generation goes, and a generation comes,    but the earth remains forever. The sun rises and the sun goes down,    and hurries to the place where it rises. The wind blows to the south,    and goes round to the north; round and round goes the wind,    and on its circuits the wind returns. All streams run to the sea,    but the sea is not full; [...]
