...Tabernacle and Temple Comparison The Tabernacle was a sanctified place where God chose to meet his people, the Israelites, during the 40 years they roamed in the desert under Moses’ guidance. The leaders and people came together to worship and offer sacrifices. The detailed layout of the Tabernacle and its courtyard is important because it shows God’s given way for man to approach Him. This setup informed the Israelites they could only come to God in the way he prescribed. The Tabernacle entailed a tent-like structure covered by rug-like layers for a roof, and an exterior courtyard. The Tabernacle was separated into the Holy Place and the Holy of Holies (The Tabernacle Place, 2006). It was made of acacia wood boards coated with gold and fitted together to form the walls. On top, four layers of curtains represented a roof to protect the Tabernacle from sun and rain, the innermost layer was knitted with good linen and embroidered with angel figures, the second layer was made of goat’s hair, the third layer was made of rams’ skins dyed red, and the outermost layer was made of porpoise skins (The Tabernacle Place, 2006). The curtains were held to the ground with loops and clasps. The Tabernacle was enclosed by a tall fence made of lined draperies (The Tabernacle Place, 2006). The whole compound was surrounded by a high fence with only one entrance. The gate was concealed by a curtain or screen made of finely twisted linen with the colors blue, purple and...

...defined as “an assembly” or “called-out ones.” The root meaning of “church” is not that of a building, but of people. It is ironic that when you ask people what church they attend, they usually identify a building. Romans 16:5 says “… greet the church that is in their house.” Paul refers to the church in their house—not a church building, but a body of believers. A church is a holy place where Christians attend to worship the Holy God above. Belize church association Admiral of the Caribbean TEMPLES: In Jesus time, a temple was a common place of worship. The Jews would also go to the temples to study. There is a story in the bible about Jesus turning over tables in the temple of Jerusalem. (Matt 21:12) the peoples were using the temple to deceive and make money.

...behind so many offerings. Others that the book describes are Priesthood and The Inauguration of the Tabernacle Service. One of the more interesting parts of the first part of this book was when it talks about the sin of Nadab and Abihu. Nadab and Abihu were two of the four sons of Aaron. Aaron and his sons were chosen to bring up the line of priests. It says in Leviticus chapter 10: “Now Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer, and put unholy fire before the Lord, such as He had not commanded them. And fire came forth from the presence of the Lord and devoured them, and they died before the Lord.” Nadab and Abihu disobeyed the Lord because He had not instructed them to bring fire into the Holy of Holies. They weren’t even allowed to go into the Holy of Holies; only the High Priest, who was Aaron, could do that and only on the Day of Atonement. While the actual sin that they did is not definitely known, some say that Nadab and Abihu were mocking the Lord and brought in incense from the neighboring cultures. At this time, Israelites were sinning because they did not listen to the Lord when He said not to mingle with the...

...exhibited a certain level of religious tolerance. No new churches were to be built and crosses could not be publicly displayed outside church buildings, but the pilgrims were allowed to continue their treks to the holiest shrines of Christendom. The situation remained stable for over 400 years. Then, in the latter part of the 11th century, the Turks swarmed westward out of Central Asia overrunning all that lay in their path. Jerusalem fell to them in 1076. Reports of robberies, beatings, killings, degradation of holy sites and the kidnapping for ransom of the city's patriarch made their way back to Europe. To the Europeans the Holy Land was now in the smothering grip of the Infidel and something must be done. In response, Pope Urban II called a conference at the city of Clermont, France in 1095, concluding the eight days of deliberation with one of history's most influential speeches. Mounting a lofty scaffold, the Pope exhorted the assembled multitude to wrest the Holy Land from the hands of the Infidel and assured them that God would absolve them from any sin associated with the venture. His words fell on receptive ears as the crowd responded with cries of "It is the will of God!", "It is the will of God!". The Crusades had begun.

...Paete is a fourth class municipality in the province of laguna. Holy week in paete Paete's most spectacular celebration takes place during Holy Week. It begins on Palm Sunday with the re-enactment of Christ's triumphant entry into Jerusalam. The short procession starts at the Ermita Chapel where the priest blesses the palaspas (palm branch) of the faithful. The participants then slowly move to the church as manangs (religious women) put their balabal (shawl) on the street for the priest to walk through. This custom is called payapak. A mass is held and afterwards the 16th-century statue of the Dead Body of Christ, or Señor Sepulkro to Paeteños, is brought home to its recamadero (owner and keeper of said image). The images are owned by individual families and are passed down to succeeding generations. For five days leading to Good Friday, the faithful kiss the exposed hands and feet of the Señor Sepulkro. On Holy Wednesday, a procession is held with Paete's 53 images of Christ's Passion and Ministry on display. The procession goes through the town's narrow streets en route to the church. It stops three times to give way to the Salubong (meeting) which depicts three scenes of Jesus' passion and in which Paete's "moving saints" take part. These are: the meeting of Christ and Mary, held at the church patio; the wiping of Jesus' face by Veronica, which takes place at Plaza Edesan; and finally, the encounter between Mary and Veronica where the latter shows the miraculous imprints...

...Student Name Instructor Name Course Name Date Internet Ordering Website Set To Transform GM Sales From a customer perspective an ecommerce website is easy to use and definitely beats the traditional method of buying a car. From General Motors’ perspective ShopClickDrive.com was anything but easy, requiring three years of intense work, 8000 employees and the investment of millions of dollars. It may well be exactly the transformation the auto industry has needed. In an effort to adapt to changing customer demands as well as to differentiate the company, GM brought a vast amount of outsourced IT operations in-house and completely renovated its computer infrastructure, resulting in what could be a sea-change for the U.S. automotive industry. While many customers have been making smaller online purchases such as books and clothing for many years and the trend continues to grow every year, the automotive industry has long been hailed as the holy grail of online sales. As though there weren’t already enough challenges for GM in this undertaking, it is important to keep in mind that GM does not sell directly to customers. Instead, it sells exclusively through a large dealer network. Over 30 percent of the manufacturer’s 4300 dealers are on board already with more expected to join going forward. With a close rate of 30 percent, dealers have a lot to gain as they benefit from a massive channel to an eager customer base leveraging GM’s massive investment in equipment and custom...

...with family and friends, snow in the yard, stockings hanging in the living room, and shouts of "Merry Christmas" to those who pass us in the streets? Is this really Christmas? For many people, Christmas is a time of sorrow. They don't have the extra money to buy presents for their children, family, and friends. Many are saddened at Christmastime when they think of their loved ones who will not be able to come home for various reasons. Turkey dinners may be only a wish and not a reality for some. Another factor is the advertising is it all around us especially during Christmas time. We have become so material that it’s all about gifts or boxing day. Most of us are looking forward so we can buy a new laptop or phone as soon as it comes on sale. These things make Christmas a marketing event not a holiday. A holiday, that is supposed to be spent with family and friends enjoying with each other. I can explain this with a simple story. I was picking up some items in my neighbourhood convenience store the other day when I noticed this young girl and boy beside me perusing store items. The girl looked about 11; the boy, probably her brother, about 7 or 8. They were under-dressed for the weather with light, layered clothing and basic worn running shoes. They had no winter boots. There were no designer clothes here. They looked more like well-used hand-me-downs. These children looked too lean, perhaps undernourished. After counting their change, the boy asked the woman at the counter...

We divorced after being together for 12 years and then I went crazy with partying. I was in sales and it affored me the opportunity to have “free” money and do whatever I wanted, when I wanted. I felt alive and yet alone, scared, and abandoned like never before. How I came to a cognitive knowledge of Who Jesus is and what He did for me. God is so great. I was in New York, New York on Park Avenue with one of my best friends. I was running some errands with her, as we were standing in a paper store, the song Cry out to Jesus came on. I looked at her and just started weeping, I knew God was calling me back to Him. That began my very slow journey back to Christ. Circumstances surrounding your conversion. I felt alone for so many years. I felt so unworthy of love and respect. My parents were great examples of Christ, but I needed more. I was in such a self destructive mode, making choices that I despised, when I wasn’t so sick. I just knew I could no longer live this way. I felt the Holy Spirit just pulling me back to Him, telling me none of these things or people will fill me up and love me as Christ does.
