This sermon, Case Law, preached on August 3, 2025 at Christ Community's Olathe Campus, examines Exodus 21-24 with a focus on 21:1-11. It's the tenth message in the "Exodus: Yahweh Rescues" series, addressing challenging laws for human flourishing in a broken world.
I unpack:
- The difference between apodictic (absolute) and case laws (conditional), showing these as responses to poverty, not endorsements of slavery.
- How Yahweh's rules dignify the vulnerable, promote justice patiently, and point to redemption in Christ.
- Practical wisdom like "do for one what you wish for everyone" for pursuing proximate justice today.
This message, a tough topic at a new campus, taught me to confront cultural tensions head-on, influencing how I now prepare for sensitive biblical issues. I hope it equips you to read hard passages with hope, seeing God's care for justice and dignity.
📖 Key Passage: Exodus 21:1–11
🎧 Listen and reflect: How can I pursue proximate justice for the vulnerable in my own community today?
