The Crayola Color Magic Light Brush Kit is a unique and innovative art set that allows children to create stunning works of art with ease.

The brush comes with six different colors that can be easily switched out, allowing for a wide range of vibrant and beautiful designs. One of the key features of this kit is the magical effect that the light brush creates. As the brush glides across the paper, it leaves behind a trail of glowing color, making the artwork come to life. This light-up effect adds a sense of wonder and delight to the creative process, inspiring children to explore their imagination and express themselves in new and exciting ways.
By the time we get to Matthew 23, the people have hated God so ferociously and lived in opposition to His covenant for so long, that the cup of His bitter curses was about to tip and drown them in His suffocating wrath.
And the way these curses are avoided is not through the triumph of a love-sick, dragon-slaying, hero but by the loving obedience of the dragon-slaying LORD. Therefore, behold, I am sending you prophets and wise men and scribes; some of them you will kill and crucify, and some of them you will scourge in your synagogues, and persecute from city to city, so that upon you may fall the guilt of all the righteous blood shed on earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah, the son of Berechiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar.
This light-up effect adds a sense of wonder and delight to the creative process, inspiring children to explore their imagination and express themselves in new and exciting ways. Additionally, the Crayola Color Magic Light Brush Kit is designed to be easy to use and mess-free. The light brush is battery-powered, and the colors are contained within a self-contained cartridge that can be easily replaced.
God Assumes the Covenant Curse
"When the sun had gone down and it was dark, behold, a smoking fire pot and a flaming torch passed between these pieces. On that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram" (vv. 17–18a).
We have been looking at God's plan of redemption that lies behind Jesus' statement that He had to suffer, die, and rise from the dead (Mark 8:31). Our Lord's sense of obligation was born from the covenant He made with the Father and the Holy Spirit to save the elect from the sin and guilt Adam brought on humanity when he broke the covenant of works. This salvation would involve Christ's coming as the last Adam who would obey God where we did not and crush Satan (Gen. 3; Rom. 5:12–21). It would take place in an arena made stable by God's covenantal promise to Noah not to destroy the earth with a flood again (Gen. 8:20–22).
Thus, the plan of salvation would be unfolded in a series of covenants in which two parties pledged to fulfill obligations to one another. These covenants include blessings for those who meet their obligations and curses for those who do not, such as the covenant of works' blessing of eternal life and curse of death (Rom. 5:12–21).
The glory of the gospel is that God assumed the covenant curses Himself in the person of Christ to save us and thereby reveal His love and justice (Rom. 3:21–26; Gal. 3:10–14). Today's passage anticipates our Creator's willingness to take on the covenant curse. In the ancient Near East, covenants were actually "cut," as the term used for making covenants is the Hebrew word that means "to cut." That terminology likely derives from the ceremony wherein a covenant was ratified. During the covenant ratification ceremony, the parts of several killed and dismembered animals were laid side by side with a path between them. The parties to the covenant would walk between the animal pieces while swearing oaths to keep the covenant. In effect, they were calling for the curse that fell on the animals—death—to fall on them if they should break their covenant vows.
Genesis 15 describes how God used such a ceremony to assure Abraham that He would give the patriarch an heir who would bless the world. But note that the only party to the Abrahamic covenant who passed between the animals was the Lord, who manifested Himself as a pot and torch. God was calling for His own death should the covenant not be fulfilled, but since He cannot die, that meant His promises would certainly come to pass. To ensure that the covenant would not fail, God essentially adopted all the aspects of the covenant Himself, even the curse that Abraham would have submitted to had he passed between the animal pieces as well.
This means that children can focus on their artwork without worrying about spills or messes, making this kit suitable for use at home or on the go. The Crayola Color Magic Light Brush Kit also comes with a number of fun stencils that children can use to create more elaborate designs. These stencils are easy to use and can be mixed and matched to create endless possibilities. Whether a child wants to create a colorful masterpiece or a simple doodle, this kit provides them with the tools they need to bring their vision to life. In conclusion, the Crayola Color Magic Light Brush Kit is a fantastic art set that combines creativity, innovation, and fun. With its light-up brush and vibrant colors, it offers children a unique and magical drawing experience. Whether used at home or on the go, this kit provides endless opportunities for children to unleash their creativity and create truly stunning works of art..
Reviews for "Creating Masterpieces with the Crayola Color Magic Light Brush Kit"
- Mark - 2 stars - I bought the Crayola color magic light brush kit for my daughter and she was excited to try it out. However, we were both disappointed with the results. The brush is clunky and difficult to use, making it hard to create any meaningful patterns or designs. The light feature also seems unnecessary and adds nothing to the overall experience. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this kit as there are much better options out there for creative children.
- Lisa - 1 star - I have to say, I was extremely disappointed with the Crayola color magic light brush kit. Not only is the brush itself poorly designed, but the colors are dull and not vibrant at all. The light feature is completely unnecessary and feels like a cheap gimmick. I expected more from Crayola, especially since their regular products are usually of much higher quality. I would not recommend this kit to anyone looking for a fun and creative art experience.
- Chris - 2 stars - The Crayola color magic light brush kit was a big letdown for me and my kids. The brush itself is flimsy and difficult to control, making it hard to create any sort of detailed artwork. The light feature is also quite gimmicky and doesn't add anything worthwhile to the kit. The colors themselves are also quite dull and lack vibrancy. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this kit as there are much better options available for aspiring young artists.
