The Tent Maker
In this sermon The Tent Maker, the tent dweller, in the Bible, was a person who temporarily was set up where they were. Tents can be taken down. They are easily dismantled for the purpose of going onward again. When one dwells in a land in a tent, one is dwelling in a place that is not home. God called Abraham out of his homeland and told him He would take him to a city. And the builder and maker of that City would be his God. By faith Abraham packed up and went, not knowing where he was going. Isaac and Jacob also dwelt in tents. Let us MAKE SURE this world remains STRANGE TO US. Don't let it become a comfortable place. Don't allow fear of death haul you back into a comfortable attitude place down here. We are not home yet. Keep your eyes on the savior.
