The Goodness of the Tabernacle (6 of 7)

Exodus 25:23-30; Leviticus 24:5-9; John 6:35
As you're turning to Exodus 25 I want to ask you a question: What lens are you looking through these days? I mean, as you look at your life and circumstances, are you looking through a biblical lens or through a secular lens? The lens you look through makes all the difference in the world how you see the world.
A biblical lens allows you to see things from God's perspective. A secular lens allows you to see things from the worlds' perspective: one is a biblical world view while the other one is a secular world view.
When I see things through the lens of scripture it gives me hope. When I see things through the lens of the world it removes my hope.
Do you know what having a biblical world view does in your life other than giving you God's perspective? It makes you hungry for the word of God! And that hunger drives you to the scriptures like your physical hunger drives you to the dinner table! I'm at the table daily because my stomach is saying, ''Feed me.'' I'm in the scriptures daily because my soul is saying ''Feed me.'' And the more I feed on the word of God, the clearer my vision gets, giving me a biblical world view!
That may be one reason so few believer's today have a biblical world view because they're neglecting the feeding of their soul. I'm just saying that it's going to be difficult for you to have a biblical world view without reading and feeding and learning the word of God.
By the way, the Devil knows that! He knows that if he can keep you out of the scriptures, he has a much better chance to neutralize your witness and to secularize your perspective.
So, let me ask you this: what lens do you use as you look at the Old Testament? I sometimes hear believers say, ''I don't really care for the Old Testament, after all, aren't we under the new covenant of grace and no longer under the old c ...
