“And whatever you ask in prayer, you will receive, if you have faith.” – Matthew 21:22❤️

Repenting of some choices today that were not pleasing to our holy God. Believing in faith that my sins are forgiven because of Jesus sacrifice!

So why should we worry about how they did offerings centuries ago? How does it change anything we would normally do today?
-
I don’t think it changes anything we do today, because Jesus was the final and perfect sacrifice for our sin! But, to me, reading the very specific laws and sacrifices that were required to pay for sin reminds me how much of an offense my sin is to God — every little sin — and that sin must be paid for with death. Reading Leviticus causes me to worship my Savior all the more because He Himself took on all the punishment for my sin!

I wondered that too

It is highly significant that when God begins to speak to Moses in the middle of the camp from the entrance of the tabernacle, the first topic God addresses for the first seven chapters has to do with sacrificial offerings and atonement for sin. If we, in reading the New Testament, are to properly understand what it means for Christ’s death to be sacrificial; penal; substitutionary; atoning; ransoming; redemptive; justifying; purifying; forgiving; covenantal, we will have to look primarily to the book of Leviticus for that understanding. It does not simply provide the background for the death of Jesus Christ, but the very foundation, the scaffolding, the framework, the blueprint, or the tapestry-design for the proper understanding of what Christ accomplished in his life, death, and resurrection.

Great comments and discussion of these passages in Leviticus! Thank you! So thankful for Christ, this old system would have been so hard.

I think it shows how God sent his us for us… God wanted the Isrealists to bring an animal without blemish to die for their sins
Just as God send his son without blemish to die for our sins. I think it’s showing the isreal that they are doing the same thing that God will do..
Or at least that’s what I am taking from it

Curious to know people’s thoughts: As I read Leviticus, the offerings for every son, how were they supposed to survive? Like a fleeting thought of jealousy or anger requires the same as all sin, but they happen so easily. They couldn’t just pray and ask for grace and forgiveness. If they were honest, how did anyone have anything left? I have a lot of random thoughts off of this but this is what I’ll leave here fo now. Thanks

I think the burden/impossibility of the sacrifice system is sort of the point. It was meant to direct the Israelites’ (and our) attention to the fact that they could not meet God’s standard of perfection on their own. Sin is a serious offense to God and had to be stoned for. They (we) desperately were in need of a Messiah who could free them once and for all from their bondage to sin and put them in right standing with God again.

22 “If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.”
-
The beginning of this reading has me wondering what is it that we should offer to the Lord for our sins in this day in time?
-
We don’t have to offer Jesus anything for our sins, that’s the amazing thing! Jesus died for our sins and all we have to do is accept that and ask for forgiveness through the blood of Him

Amen amen!!!
