THE SUNDAY SERMON - EL SERMON DOMINICAL (11/17/2024)
ALONE WITH GOD, PT. 5
by Dr., David J. Hoyte, RCU President
THE HIGH PRIEST AND THE HOLY OF HOLIES
There is a distinct relation or similarity between the high Priest and the Holy of Holies. The High Priest was the oracle of God. Through him God revealed His holiness and His discipline and also His judgements. Now, we have already established that the Holy of Holies received no life from the other outward activities of the temple but rather received its life from within the Ark of the Covenant.
A SOLAS CON DIOS, PT. 5
Por el Dr. David J. Hoyte
Presidente, Regional Christian University
EL SUMO SACERDOTE Y EL LUGAR SANTÍSIMO
Existe una clara relación o similitud entre el sumo sacerdote y el Lugar Santísimo. El sumo sacerdote era el oráculo de Dios. A través de él, Dios revelaba su santidad, su disciplina y también sus juicios. Ahora bien, ya hemos establecido que el Lugar Santísimo no recibía vida de las otras actividades externas del templo, sino que recibía su vida desde dentro del Arca del Pacto.

"Reflecting on my educational journey, I am immensely grateful for the profound impact that Regional Christian University (RCU) has had on my academic and personal development. RCU has not only provided me with a comprehensive and rigorous undergraduate education but has also served as an exceptional foundation for my transition into graduate school."

"I've been a student at Regional Christian University for three years. I'm an older Christian who could just rest in my Christian walk with Christ. Instead I'm on an adventure to know him deeper and study to show myself approved, able to rightly divide the Word of God. The courses offered at the University level have enriched my life and enabled me to encounter the love of my life through the Holy Spirit! I plan on continuing my studies at this level until He calls me home! What an excellent opportunity to grow and become all He wants me to be! My foundation is firm and I delight in sharing what I'm learning with those in my sphere of influence around me! "

"In Regional Christian University, I was able to gain a greater understanding of the Word of God, and now I have a deeper faith. Through the studies here I discovered the great need for God's people to study. The Lord sends us to preach the Gospel and we need the preparation and understanding of the Word in order to have a good focus and make an impact. RCU not only prepared me for the service of the Lord, but my credits easily transferred to the Seminary where I was able to study for my Masters in Theological Studies."

"Regional Christian Univesity offered an opportunity for me that I would otherwise have missed out on. I am the mother of five children and had no way to just get up and move away so that I could attend a Christian college. Now I have that right here in the Rio Grande Valley. It's close by and affordable. I am so grateful to God."

"I have been at Regional Christian University since 2021. Although it is academically oriented, I have found the school as a place of belonging. The way teachers teach and the way students fellowship with one another during and after school sessions portrays just what Jesus Christ wants a Christian family to be like. If you want a place that you can call home and classmates that you can call family, Regional Christian University is your best choice. Come one, come all, and enjoy the love of Christ which is shared amongst men. - El-Felix MacDough, Great Britain, United Kingdom."

"My name is Martha Serrato. I had the privilege of being a student at Regional Christian university. As a student, I can say that it was a good experience to interact with other students and study everything related to the Word of God from the teachers of each subject.

"I greet you in the blessed name of Jesus our Savior.
I want to share with all those who are being called to shepherd the flock of the Lord, that they consider as part of their theological preparation REGIONAL CHRISTIAN UNIVERSITY directed by Dr. David Hoyte.
This University has a study plan that meets the need of every servant of God in order to carry out the Pastoral Ministry. The schedules are convenient and the revalidation of courses from other compatible university studies is considered.
I invite you to take action: Make up your mind, prepare, and obey the call of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ: “Then he said to his disciples: Truly the harvest is great, but the laborers are few. “Pray therefore the Lord of the harvest, that He may send laborers into His harvest” (Matthew 9:35–38).
I encourage you to consider this opportunity and, as soon as possible, decide to prepare to be part of God's army.” - Dr. Mireya Espinosa, Pastor.

"Dr. David Hoyte is a man apprehended by God. He has a firm grasp on scripture and knows the word of God. It is of utmost importance for us to know God and brother Hoyte knows the Lord. In ministry God saves man, He calls man, selects man, anoints man, equips man, puts His Spirit upon man when He sees a man who is committed and dedicated to the Lord and to His work. I see in him Romans 8:14 at work. “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.” - Rev. Marion Yoder, Pastor.

" I think the vision of Dr. David Hoyte and Regional Christian University of affordable education is just right for the students in our area.
Affordable, flexible, and online makes this the right choice for students who need to get a good quality education in a busy world.
Contact them and see if it is right for you." James Keller, Pastor.
"As a pastor, missionary, teacher, and author, I've seen countless young people and Christians brimming with faith but unsure of how to follow God's calling or how to serve in the body of Christ. Regional Christian University has been on the frontlines bridging this gap to empower the priesthood of all believers. RCU provides biblical, Christ-centered education, not just academics, to equip students to be strong in their faith and purposeful in their lives. They don't just graduate students, they cultivate passionate servants – mission-minded, Spirit-led, and ready to answer God's call in any field. If you're looking for an institution that will nurture your faith alongside your education, Regional Christian University is an answer to your prayer." - Dr. Randrick Chance, Pastor.
"I had the privilege of meeting Dr. Hoyte in 2018. The Lord led me in 2017 to start an adult choir ministry, but by 2018 I heard of Regional Christian University, which, not too long after, became a choir home for our ministry. I learned that this place had a servant's heart to serve others." - Caleb Soto, Worship Leader.
