warning! this post contains:

talk of christianity

before I say please proceed with caution, i want to clarify that everything said here is MY opinion. it may or may not be true. do not believe me unless this makes sense to you. also, this goes to everyone, do NOT harrass me for these beliefs. i am still the same old person. I will not be talking about christianity a lot in this blog.

please proceed with caution!

okay, so, if i may, i wanted to say something.

ive thought about it, and ive realized a few things. the whole thing with the church building, i dont think thats what God intended.

its nice to come together in the church building, sure, but sitting in a large echoey room with murals and statues of God's chosen people and stuff, while being lectured by some random guy dressed in a heavy robe whos supposed to be "higher than us"? i never liked it.

going to church, is going to where your family is. being together with your loved ones, this means friends, too.

church means family. it does not mean a priest reading the bible to everyone in a "way that they would understand". All that just makes me feel belittled.

once again, you should not agree with me unless this makes sense to YOU. for any of my moots or anyone who is not christian, please dont virtually attack me, idc who believes in what. these are my beliefs, please dont harrass me for them.

Exodus 25 Building the Tabernacle

God told Moses to tell the Israelites to bring Him their sacred offerings. God gave them a list of acceptable offerings.

God then instructed Moses to build Him a Tabernacle which would include the ark, the table, and the lampstand and its furnishings according to the pattern and dimensions God gave to Moses.

The ark was to be made of acacia wood. Moses was to put the tablets which contained the commandments inside the ark. The ark had very specific measurements. God also instructed Moses to make an atonement cover that was made of pure gold. This would have cherubim with their wings spread wide over the Ark of the Covenant. God then told Moses that He would meet with him so that He could pass on the tablets that held the commandments for the people of Israel.

The table for the sanctuary was also to be made out of acacia wood. God explained the specific plans for this table. The pitchers, plates, and bowls for offerings that were set on this table were to be made from pure gold. He also instructed Moses to keep the special bread on this table at all times.

Moses was also to make a lampstand fashioned from pure gold. This would have a base that was hammered by hand. The stand would have seven lamps on it. The trays as well as the wick trimmers were also supposed to be made of pure gold. God told Moses that he was to make everything according to the plan that the Lord had laid out.

You are to make a lampstand out of pure, hammered gold. It is to be made of one piece: its base and shaft, its ornamental cups, and its buds and petals. Six branches are to extend from its sides, three branches of the lampstand from one side and three branches of the lampstand from the other side. There are to be three cups shaped like almond blossoms, each with a bud and petals, on one branch, and three cups shaped like almond blossoms, each with a bud and petals, on the next branch. It is to be this way for the six branches that extend from the lampstand. There are to be four cups shaped like almond blossoms on the lampstand shaft along with its buds and petals. For the six branches that extend from the lampstand, a bud must be under the first pair of branches from it, a bud under the second pair of branches from it, and a bud under the third pair of branches from it. Their buds and branches are to be of one piece. All of it is to be a single hammered piece of pure gold. Make its seven lamps, and set them up so that they illuminate the area in front of it. Its snuffers and firepans must be of pure gold. The lampstand with all these utensils is to be made from seventy-five pounds of pure gold. Be careful to make them according to the pattern you have been shown on the mountain.

Exodus 25:31-40

Whenever Moses entered the tent, the pillar of cloud would descend and stand at the entrance of the tent; and the LORD would speak with Moses. Exodus 33.9
