03 God’s Priorities

About this episode

Mike Davies discusses the eternal nature of God's plans for His church and how the tabernacle's design reflects these principles.

By Mike Davies, Mervis van der Merwe & Luke Watson  What we know as the New Testament church was not an afterthought for God—His plans are eternal. In this discussion, Mike Davies speaks to Luke Watson and Mervis van der Merwe about how the tabernacle’s design reflects God’s plan for His church, as described in Acts 2:42. We are reminded of God’s unchanging nature, and that the principles and patterns He laid out remain, even though they might look different in style. Today, we are His temple, a people built together for His presence to dwell within us.
