The God Who Makes Foreigners Family

In Exodus 12–13, as Israel leaves Egypt, a surprising detail appears: a mixed multitude goes with them. Some want nothing to do with God, others want His blessings without His people, and still others are drawn to the community without truly surrendering to Him. But in the midst of it all, God reveals a stunning truth—there is a way for outsiders to come near. This message explores the different ways people respond to encountering God and shows how the Passover ultimately points us to Jesus Christ, the true Passover Lamb who was cut off so that foreigners, outsiders, and sinners could be welcomed into the family of God. More than a sermon about church attendance or community, this is a message about union with Christ, the beauty of the church, and the breathtaking grace of a Savior who makes strangers into sons and daughters.
