The israelites were God 's people however even though God brought them out of egypt all they did was whine and complain about being in the wilderness. They would have rather stay in egypt as slaves than to be free from the bondage . It was portrayed as if they thought God had betrayed them..God gave these commands to the people to let them know he is the only God and to start to ingrain in their mind what he wants them to do. The laws he provided are to be followed rather than the laws of the world.
To me this shows God separating his people at that moment from the people of the world but also letting them know that even though I do not want you following the ways of the land , he also expected you to obtain and respect laws of the world that did not conflict with his and to still have personal relationships and worship him. The covenant with israel related to the christian worldview because as christians we like israel sometimes complain and whine when we dont know Gods plans for us but like the israelites we soon see they he has brought us out of the wilderness and into the promised

    In today’s society, people are swept up in the wrath of being too prideful, or become greedy. These deadly sins deaden our religious life, causing us to distance ourselves from God’s path. Everyone must dig deep into their spiritual lives, and lend a helping hand to those who need it the most. Whether it’s simply having a conversation with a homeless person, donating money, or volunteering at a daycare for the destitute children, these charitable acts can make a huge difference in someone’s life. My service learning experience was an eye opener for me, and it made me realize how privileged and blessed I truly am.…

    Service to others has played a big part of my high school career. I am an instructor for a middle school indoor winterline group and I am specifically in charge of the colorguard members and their work. When I am with the group, I help instruct and show these young students the correct way to do dance, colorguard, and performance. By teaching them, it has lead me to develop my own skills, like communication, leadership, and my own dance and colorguard skills. Also, another reason service is important in my life is because of the relationships I gain.…

    One of the activities I do that is substantial to me is volunteering as a Kettle Host during Winter for the Salvation Army. Through Christmas Kettles, I collect donations from the society to help give back to the less fortunate in our community. What volunteering for the Salvation Army has taught me is that even the smallest effort can make a tremendous impact. When I first started off as a volunteer, I did not feel motivated enough to believe what I was doing would truly have an impact. I had this mindset which led me to believe that the happenings in our community did not concern me, although, I began to have a change of opinion as I kept volunteering.…

    I started building my foundation for community service back in fifth grade with Girl Scouts. My troop volunteered at the Ronald McDonald House, read to kindergartners, and organized food at the food pantry. I continued these acts all the way up through eighth grade. In high school, I joined Key Club, where I sold flowers for powder puff, volunteered at my elementary school’s Trunk or Treat, and helped with the book and coat drive. Outside of school, I continued serving in my church through events like VBS.…

    One of the way this change manifests itself is in our outward behavior and words. God calls us to be servants, and Jesus Himself acted as a servant while on earth. Foster (1998) calls this “Revolutionary Subordination” (p. 115), and he says that revolutionary subordination frees us to “lay down the terrible burden of always needing to get our own way” (p. 111). In doing this, we are able to participate in true and pure fellowship with the people around us. Foster (1998) gives several characteristics of true service, and, in my opinion, the most important one is that “true service is free of the need to calculate results” (p. 129).…

    Often, when I think of acts of service, I envision a group of teenagers headed to go ‘help out those who do not have as much as we do.’ Richard Foster’s article, “The Discipline of Service” is packed with an exploration of what true servitude is. Foster’s article takes our sterile, one-week trip idea of servitude, and demands the reader to think of a daily sacrificial servitude as a the true Biblical model of servitude. In reading this article, there are three main points that I would like to highlight: serving as a means to grow in humility, choosing to be a servant, and serving as a daily, sacrificial lifestyle. Cutting straight to the heart of service, Foster states that “nothing disciplines the inordinate desires of the flesh like service, and nothing transforms the desires of the flesh like serving in hiddenness” (130).…

    Continuing to research and understand why recreational drug use can not coincide with a mature Christian life, we must understand what a mature Christian’s purpose is. There are many people who think that one can be a mature Christian and still be involved in earthly pleasures, but this false idea is disproven by 2 Timothy 2:4 when it states, “No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.” Through this statement, we can see that a Christian has a mission and it is to serve. To understand a Christian’s purpose in life we must comprehend in what capacity he is to serve.…
