Great Idea on How to Read Your Bible ...

You may not be interested in 'The Voice' Bible project referenced here, but the idea on how to read your Bible is so good that I wanted to pass it along.   Enjoy.

For those who are travelers with us at Phos Community Church I'll see you at worship in the morning and I hope you'll be able to work with us at 4200 tomorrow afternoon from 2 to 5 to help get some outdoor projects accomplished.

peace,
Jeff

In the last post I shared with you that early in the project we decided to translate God’s name (YHWH) “the Eternal One” or “the Eternal.”  In this post and the next, I want to give you some of our thinking.

First, the name YHWH is clearly understood to be God’s covenant name.  It was revealed to Moses at Mt. Sinai (Exodus 3:13-15).  Here is that classic exchange:  

Moses: 13Let’s say I go to the people of Israel and tell them, “The God of your fathers has sent me to rescue you,” and then they reply, “What is His name?” What should I tell them then?

Eternal One: 14I AM WHO I AM.* This is what you should tell the people of Israel: “I AM has sent me to rescue you.”

         15This is what you are to tell Israel’s people: “The Eternal One [YHWH], the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob is the One who has sent me to you.” This is My name forevermore, and this is the name by which all future generations shall remember Me.

The revelation of God’s name to Moses is associated with two of the most important events in the Old Testament: the liberation of the Hebrew slaves from Egyptian bondage and the institution of God’s covenant with Israel at Sinai.  The declaration affirms that this God is none other than the God who had already appeared and established a covenant of blessing with Abraham and his children.  Therefore, it is a covenant name that links past, present, and future: I am the God who was with Abraham. I am the God who hears the prayers of My people now.  I am the God who will rescue them in the future. I am the Eternal.  It is a relational name that emphasizes God’s saving actions and His “being there” for His covenant people. 

Second, the name YHWH appears to be built on the Hebrew verb “to be.” (hayah).  When asked his name, God responds: “I AM WHO I AM” . . . [say] “I AM has sent me to rescue you.”  The verbal idea has a timeless quality. This is one reason why we think the English word “eternal” helps to capture something of its meaning.  Furthermore, God himself emphasizes that this name is eternal; it stands forever and must be remembered  by future generations of God’s covenant partners.

In the next post, I’ll share with you the final reason we decided to translate God’s name “the Eternal.”  You may be surprised to know it has something to do with the Ten Commandments or as we prefer to call them, the Ten Directives.



* 3:14 “Eternal One” is derived from the Hebrew word meaning, “I am.”

Package needs for Soldiers

This month we have been collecting items to send to one of our Phos family members and his men that are currently serving in Afghanistan. Our priority would be to collect enough funds to buy them 9 good electric razors. If you would like to donate just put a little extra in your tithe check and 12% of our total offerings for the day will go into our Missions Fund.  We will then pull out of there all of the finances we need to buy the razors. In addition we would like for families to bring in needed items like:

  • foot powder
  • hand sanitizer
  • eyedrops
  • protein powder
  • protein bars
  • little debbies
  • trail mix.  

We will be packing the boxes and writing letters this Sunday.  We need to do some shopping this weekend so if you would like to bring any of these items with you on Sunday please email me so we know what we need to buy.  Thanks,

You can email Meredith@PhosChurch.com .

Thanks,

Meredith Lewis

The ONE ANOTHERs of the New Testament … this is the way we need to live as a TEAM at PCC

A huge part of our dream at PCC is that we can have life-long transformative Christ-Centered friendships.  One key piece of the ENGAGE series is that of being on an ENGAGE team to start & strengthen those friendships.  In these 'One-Anothers' of the New Testament we are challenged to love each other well and to build each other up.  Let's work on these on our ENGAGE Teams and also on the larger PCC Team.   This is the way forward for PCC as we team up to advance the cause of Jesus Christ for the Global Good.
