Time is more than minutes and hours. Explore the sacred nature of time revealed in the Bible and how God uses celestial markers to reveal his plan. Learn about the first "tick" and God's appointments for humanity.
This final week is shorter than our earlier seven-day cycles, bringing us to Yom Kippur. We will move through five themes: the seriousness of sin, God's provision of atonement, the Messiah's saving work, the humility of standing before God, and the continuing life of faithful return.
But Teshuva does not permit us to stand across the street and critique the house.
If we belong to Yeshua, this is our house.
We began with our own location on the road of return. Last week we searched the inner rooms—the desires, defenses, words, idols, and explanations that can hide what is actually happening in the heart.
Now we cross the threshold.
Teshuva comes home.
Before examining our households, our congregations, Israel, or the nations, we stood where Adam stood and allowed God's question to become personal. Teshuva begins by telling the truth about where we are and then turning toward where God intended us to be.
