‘We Have Not Come To Mount Sinai.’

Hebrews 12:18. We have not come to Mount Sinai
that cannot be touched and on it were manifested:-
1-
Fire.

Blackness.
3-
Darkness.
4-
Storm.
b)
Hebrews 12:19. Mount Sinai was a frightening
place. There was the sound of a trumpet and the Voice of Words. The people who
heard the Voice were so afraid that they pleaded with it to stop.

could not stand the command that even if an animal touches the mountain it
should be stoned to death.

terrible that Moses said that he was terrified and shaking.

‘It Is Really Very
Simple.’
Genesis 2:24.

Chris.
Sometimes we are shocked, or even frightened, by manifestations
that we are not used to. They may be natural manifestations like a tsunami, a typhoon
or a heavy snow storm these can be really frightening to the person who is not
used to them. They may be manifestations that are in some way created by human
beings. At those difficult times of shock and fear God wants to help us and
comfort us.
