This message is from Leviticus 27. The last chapter of Leviticus focuses on vows and dedications made to God. We’ll pull this theme along into the new covenant and find the applications for us today.
The Path to Holiness
The Day of Atonement
This message is from Leviticus 16. The mountain peak to the book of Leviticus is chapter 16 which outlines the day of atonement. Aaron sacrifices a goat and sends another out into the wilderness to symbolically carry away the sins of the people. As we follow the Biblical trail of sacrifice we arrive at Hebrews 9-10 where we see the better, once-and-for-all sacrifice given to us from God.
Clean Yourself Up!
This message is from Leviticus 11-15. Why did God institute certain rules about food and bodily cleaning for the Jews? What’s the point of eating animals that split the hoof and chew the cud, examining leprosy with a priest, and dealing with discharges in Leviticus? It all points back to the holiness of God. We’ll once again get the big picture idea and see how it applies to us who are in the New Covenant.
Separated Unto God
This message is from Leviticus 8-10. As the book of Leviticus unfolds, the worshiper realizes that God must be “sanctified (set apart) and glorified” in every area of life. We could say it this way: “All of who I am, from head to toe, is to be given over to the Lord.” That is more easily said than done. Thankfully, there is a Man who has been perfect for us.
Approaching Our Holy God
This message is from Exodus 40:34-35 and Leviticus 1:1. This is the first message in a six week study of Leviticus. By working through this book, we are going to better understand the holiness of God ad the final sacrifice of Jesus on our behalf. If you are intimidated or skeptical about a study in Leviticus, welcome to the crowd.
