Ever wonder if God approves the use of mediums or attempting to consult the dead? Wonder no more! He says those are detestable to Him.

In the laws requiring offerings and sacrifices God gives the Israelites specific instructions. He says time, after time, after time that He wants the firstborn, the first offspring, the best, the firstfruits, etc. God doesn't want the leftovers! What exactly does that mean for us?

The tithe to the Levites was really a tax from the other tribes. Gifts and offerings were above that.When God commanded a Sabbath day of rest, He compared our rest to His rest on the seventh day after creation. Did God really need to rest? Was He tired? Hardly!

Isa 40:28
Do you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom.

What He really did on the seventh day was to look back on all He had accomplished and decided it was good! Is that how He wants us to spend our Sabbath day, looking back on everything that we have done, said, seen, heard, etc. during the previous week?

What can we say about our week?
