Through the tabernacle, God initiated a deeper relationship with His Chosen People by bringing reconciliation and revelation of His glory. And, certainly, no Old Testament event so richly prefigures the coming of the true Tabernacle, Jesus Christ.Beth Moore invites you to enter the sanctuary of your God and let Him reveal marvelous mysteries to you.This in-depth, biblical study explores the fascinating account of the building of the tabernacle, the significance of its intricate design, its pivotal role in God's eternal plan, the grand fulfillment of its purpose by Jesus Christ, and its variety of meanings for your walk with God today. You will be challenged to prepare your heart, like the holy of holies, to become a home for His love and glory -- a dwelling place for the Most High God.Watch the bulletin for the dates of this fantastic study. We hope you will join us on this journey -- a journey for women to learn the tabernacle's meaning and symbolism just for them. http://www.manoa.org/news.php?item.160.8 2010-09-06T14:45:39-05:00 Webmaster Did angels marry human women and create "giants" or "monsters?"  Or was it demons?  Or was it just the "good guys" vs. the "bad guys."  Brown presents the various theories regarding the Nephilim.Click here to listen. http://www.manoa.org/news.php?item.159.2 2010-09-06T14:45:39-05:00 Webmaster Over the Top -- September 10th & 11th.
