Weekly Pursuit – Week 2 of October
Verses:
Exo. 40:34 Then the cloud covered the Tent of Meeting, and the glory of Jehovah filled the tabernacle.
Excerpts:
Immediately after the tabernacle of God was completed and raised up, two things happened. The first thing that happened was that the glory of God filled the tabernacle. God’s glory is simply God expressed. The day the glory of God filled the tabernacle was truly a great moment, because God had gained a dwelling place on the earth. Suppose that there was a group of God’s children who were truly willing to learn to mutually coordinate in the life of God and to be joined with one another and built together to be the Body as God’s spiritual habitation so that God could rest in it. We would have to believe that wherever there was such a group of people, God Himself would be expressed and glorified among them!
The second thing that happened was that the word of God was revealed in the tabernacle. Before the tabernacle was raised up, God had spoken with Moses on Mount Sinai. After the tabernacle was raised up, the glory of God filled the tabernacle, and from then on, God spoke to Moses in the tabernacle. In the New Testament, when the church of God was produced on the earth, the glory of God filled the church, and God spoke in the church, just as He did in the tabernacle in the Old Testament.
Do you want to see the glory of God? If you do, then you must come to the builded church. Do you want to hear God’s word? If you do, then you must again come to the builded church. God can be expressed only in the builded church, and God’s word can be revealed only in the builded church. (The Vision of the Building of the Church, ch. 5)
