God commanded his servant Moses to preach the word to the leaders and the people, but what did he say? 1. Tell the people that the crimes of the priesthood have a positive effect on the people (3). The priest had the duty to offer sacrifices to God for the sins of the people, and when the priest sins, it means that calamity will come to the people. A leader's faults bring suffering to others as well. When Adam Hansalam sinned, all became sinners (Romans 5:12), and death came. Even at home, remember that the sins of the parents will be punished even on the children, and you should stand right in front of God.
2. Tell them the way of apology (4-12). You must take a bullock without blemish, bring it to the front of the LORD at the entrance to the tent of meeting, put your hands on its head, and put your hands on it. depend on In this way, it should be proclaimed that Jesus judged the sins of the royal priests and satisfied God's justice by dying on the cross and forgave the sins of those who betrayed him. “Without shedding of blood, forgiveness is small.” (Hebrews 9:22)
3. Tell them that it is done only by the priests (5-10). Leading to the tent of meeting, slaughtering sacrifices, sprinkling blood, and burning sacrifices are all done by the priests of Maud. In this way, the high priest Jesus himself became the sacrifice, shed his blood, and offered his body completely to God so that our sins could be forgiven. The penalty for sin that inflicts upon anyone is death, and because Jesus took the place of death, the forgiveness of sins is made only by Jesus, the High Priest.
The way of forgiveness (Leviticus 4:13-26)
Regardless of whether the priest, the chieftain, or all the people, if they commit a sin, they must pay the price for their sin. But the path to forgiveness is here.
1. When you realize your sins, the path of forgiveness opens. When one does not realize the sin of one's own will, one cannot know that there is a way for forgiveness. God never turns away from those who repent and confess their sins, but forgives their sins (50:17; 34:18). Just as we seek a doctor when we know we are ill (Matt. 9:12), when we realize our sins and confess our sins, the way of forgiveness is opened (1 John 1:9). David also realized his sin, confessed it, and repented, so that his sins were forgiven (2 Samuel 12:7-13). Anyone who realizes their sin, repents, and confesses will receive forgiveness.
2. In order to receive the forgiveness of sins, you must offer sacrifices. The sacrifice shall be taken without blemish and holy, acceptable to God, and shall be placed on the head of the sacrifice in the presence of God in front of the tent of meeting. commanded to do The unblemished and holy sacrifice means Jesus Christ. His blood washed away our sins, and his body was sacrificed to God as a fragrant sacrifice, atonement for our sins. Now we must present our bodies as a living, holy sacrifice to God (Romans 12:1-2). It means to worship God in spirit and in truth (John 4:23-24).
3. Only through blood can we receive forgiveness of sins. Just as God's justice was satisfied by sprinkling the blood of a sacrifice on the altar, and the priests and people received forgiveness of sins, the way we receive the forgiveness of our sins today is only through the blood of Jesus (Ephesians 1:7; 1 John). 1:7).
common people's sin offering (4:27-31)
Through the Bible, we can see how fearful sin is, and how disastrous the consequences of sin are. We must avoid sin and be on constant vigilance because sin, regardless of its measure or severity, causes serious damage and damage to the life of an individual as well as to the holy community. The text refers to the common people's sin offering.
1. Breaking the commandments is a sin. The saints are obliged to keep all the commandments of the Lord. It is a sin to overlook Lee, though it may seem trivial and insignificant. The sacrifice that pleases the Lord is not ceremonialism or formalism, but pure copper. God blesses those who obey the word of the Lord and do the will of the Lord.
2. Sin must be atoned for, every sin we commit must be atoned for, no matter how serious it is. The Bible warns us that sin is a great obstacle between us and God (Isaiah 59:1-2). Therefore, if we neglect sin, communication with God is cut off, worship is not acceptable, and no matter how much we pray, we do not receive an answer. Sin should be forgiven as soon as it is recognized. That way you don't waste your life.
3. Made whole by the blood of Jesus, the only cleansing agent that can wash away human sins and make them clean is the blood of Jesus, and nothing else can replace it. Therefore, those who want to be perfected must come to Jesus. If we can be justified without Jesus and there is a way to reconcile with God, all the teachings of Christendom will inevitably be revised (Acts 4:12).
