Youth Impact Service on 4 October 08'

Our Youth Impact Meeting started off with a fun ice-breaker led by Win Shern. Remember the game “Catcher and Hitter”??? The game that got everyone rolling on the floor, laughing? Well, unfortunately, no pictures were taken because the photography guy was busy handling the ice-breaker. = ( we have a short video, though... enjoy it! ; P


Today was the first lesson about the Tabernacle. It was entitled “The Construction of The Tabernacle” shared by Pastor Geoffrey. The verses for today are Exodus 25:1-9 and 35:4-9. Below are a few pointers about this lesson:

  • The Tabernacle consists of THREE parts.

  • All the furnishings and materials of the Tabernacle have their own special symbolic meanings that referred to Jesus. (To find out their meanings, refer to your notes given) ; P
  • The Tabernacle was created because God wanted to live among His people. Yet, God is not confined in this Tabernacle as He is omnipresent.
  • The Tabernacle was so much simpler compared to Solomon’s temple but the Tabernacle was the one that was constantly used as the reference point in the NT.
  • This shows that while we are busy pursuing excellence, we should never forget the simplicity of our relationships with God.

  • Lastly, the message of the Tabernacle is that all believers in Christ have become God’s dwelling place.

    God bless you. : )
