Baptist Expositor

The children of Israel have just drunk from the smitten rock and now they face a formidable battle with Amalek. This account is rich in spiritual instruction concerning spiritual warfare and the power of intercessory prayer. The outcome of this battle was determined not by the warring in the valley but by the praying on the hilltop!

In Exodus 16 the children of Israel were tested with lack of food. Now in chapter 17 they are tested with lack of water. God's provision in both events are beautiful types of the Lord Jesus Christ who is the only one who can satisfy hungering and thirsting souls. This section of Exodus also contains a real emphasis on the sin of complaining so there is much practical help to be found for our daily...

In our last lesson we focused on how Manna was a type of Christ the Living Word. In this lesson we study how Manna is a picture of the Written Word and the importance of our daily walk.

Continuation of the exposition of the Apostle Paul's inspired teaching "concerning spiritual gifts" (Vs. 1). This subject occupies Chapters 12-14 of the Epistle. Given the widespread influence of the charismatic/Pentecostal movement today, these chapters are as important and relevant as ever!

The account of Israel's fall into idolatry at Sinai with the Golden Calf offers sobering lessons and warnings for us today. The Apostle Paul cites this story as a caution to believers in 1 Corinthians chapter 10. Let us beware lest we also fall!

In Exodus 16 they are tested with lack of food and in chapter 17, lack of water. God's provision in both events would become beautiful types of the Lord Jesus Christ who is the only one who can satisfy the hungering and thirsting of our souls. In this message we consider how the Manna typifies Christ as the Bread of Life. There is also a sobering warning in this chapter concerning the sin of compl...

Israel faces another test in this section of Exodus. The key to understanding this passage is found in verse 25 – "and there he proved them". One of the major purposes of God in the wilderness journeyings was to test His people. So, there is much to be learned about trials and testings in the walk of faith from this passage. The word 'Marah' means "bitterness" so we can also learn something...

After the Divine intervention at the Red Sea, Moses and Israel sung a glorious hymn of praise to God for His deliverance. There is much to be learned about true, God honoring praise from this song of Moses.

In this sermon we study the miracle of the Red Sea crossing, defend its authenticity against the critics and apply its principles to our Christian lives.

The children of Israel found themselves in such a place at the Red Sea and yet it would provide an occasion for one of the most powerful demonstrations of the power of God in biblical history. Viewing God's gracious dealings with the children of Israel at the Red Sea will encourage and undergird us with helpful principles that we can apply to our own trials and tests.

Continuation of the study of the Passover as a type of Christ in Exodus 12 . "…For even Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us" ( 1 Cor. 5:7 ). In this message we focus on the Passover ordinance and how it pictures the New Testament ordinance of the Lord's Supper.

Continuation of the study of the Passover as a type of Christ in Exodus 12 . "…For even Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us" ( 1 Cor. 5:7 ).

We come now to the tenth and final plague. The first 9 plagues were delivered in series of three but the final plague stands alone on account of its severity. The Passover is one of the clearest types of Christ in the Old Testament – "…For even Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us" ( 1 Cor. 5:7 ). Rich pictures of Christ and the Gospel abound!

Supplementary lesson to the Exodus plagues on the future plagues of the tribulation period.

Supplementary lesson to the Exodus plagues on the future plagues of the tribulation period.

Exposition of Exodus 10. In this chapter we have the record of plagues 8-9 (Locusts and Darkness) that God poured out in judgment on Egypt.

This message explores how God equipped willing and Spirit-filled servants to build the tabernacle according to His pattern, reminding believers that God's work must be done God's way. It also traces the theme of rest from creation and the Sabbath to the believer's ultimate rest in the finished work of Christ, encouraging Christians to value worship, service, and the Lord's Day.

In this message, we will study the anointing oil and the sweet incense. In both, we will see pictures of the Saviour and principles for the saints. The Anointing Oil – The Power of the Spirit for Service The Sweet Incense – The Prayer life of the Believer in Service

Study of the atonement money (silver half shekels of the sanctuary) and the brass laver. The atonement money teaches a lesson in salvation, the brass laver a lesson in service.

The Golden Altar of Incense pictures the believer's prayer life and Christ's continual intercession, reminding us that through His blood we may boldly approach the throne of grace in daily worship, dependence, and communion with God. This message challenges believers to pursue holy, persistent, Christ-centred prayer according to God's Word, rejecting false worship and drawing near to God through t...

Study of the Altar of Incense and how it typifies the ministry of intercession - Christ's intercession on our behalf and our ministry of intercession through Christ as our Mediator.

Study of the consecration of Aaron and his sons to the priesthood. Types of Christ abound, along with principles for our service as New Testament priests.

Paul now opens the next section on the subject of gifts – "Now concerning spiritual gifts" (Vs. 1). This subject will occupy the next 3 chapters. The Corinthian church was approaching the matter of spiritual gifts in the assembly in a carnal manner. They were particularly enamoured with the gift of tongues (see chapter 14)

Mother's Day Message 2026 - A snapshot of three special women who witnessed Christ's death, burial and resurrection: Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James the less, and Salome the mother of James and John.

In these verses we reach the summit, the climax of this great victory chapter. Having climbed out of the valley of defeat in chapter 7, we commence the climb heavenward in chapter 8. In these final verses we find ourselves surrounded by the pure light of our Sovereign God, streaming down upon us from the throne of God.
