A Devotional concerning bad church narrative on the Abrahamic Covenant, The New Covenant in the former days and how the covenants are one.
The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork.
Psalm 19:1
Many of you who listen to the podcast know that Myra’s mother has been ill. Over the weekend her mother was placed in a Hospice facility. For those not familiar with what that is, it is an end of life care facility where they are able to provide the specialized care not able to be given at home. The time has come for me to take the time to be with them and be a husband, father, grand father and son-in-law. Thank you for your prayers as we honor and remember her mother at this time. I will resume my daily thoughts and podcast soon, and again thank you for your prayers.

It is important to also know how God wants to be loved. I've mentioned previously that the world is trying to redefine love, and some of that is creeping into believer's mindsets.
We can't just define love ourselves and think "Oh, I am doing this thing because that is how I love, and this is me loving God."
In Exodus 32, we have the children of Israel, worried about the fact Moses has been gone so long, and that they need someone to speak to God for them. They have the golden calf created. After it was created, they said "These are the gods that took you out of Egypt".
Let's stop a second. First, it says they created one calf. So, why would this be "gods" in plural? In the Hebrew, the word there is elohim (אלהים) which means "gods". However, it also refers to God all over the Bible, including the first verse: Genesis 1:1.
Second, what Aaron says: tomorrow we will have a feast to the LORD The LORD in all caps showing that in Hebrew, it is God's name: YHWH (to replicate the Hebrew letters).
So, with both of these verses, we can see that they didn't create some new god for them to worship. They were trying to worship God in the way the Egyptians did. They were trying to love/worship God in the way THEY knew how, but not in the way HE wanted to be loved/worshipped. Afterward, we all know the story: Moses breaks the tablets, makes everyone drink water with powder grounded from the golden calf, and then 3,000 people died.
Knowing how God wants to be loved is important. He specifies ways He wants to be loved and ways He doesn't want to be in the Bible. Most of these instructions are all given in Exodus-Deuteronomy.
