Leviticus 8-10:Hebrews 9

Good Morning Truth Seekers! Leviticus 8-10 culminates in ordination of Aaron and his sons as priest. and ends in the death of Nadab and Abihu two of the sons. Every thing in God's house has purpose and order. Aaron was the high priest, his sons are subordinate to him, they were killed because they tried to usurp the order God has in place. In the world it is called pecking order, in the church it is divine order. God honors the offices and officers. A deacon has no business acting in the roll of a pastor. Why? He can do the same thing but never will he have a pastor's heart or authority; those things come from God. Destruction will follow when order is not followed according to divine order. God was not playing about how the sacrifices should be made. He is the authority and the worship leader, and only He can make the rules.

Hebrews 9 speaks of the divine order regarding the Holy place. There must be divine order in sacrifice and service unto to the Lord. Christ's blood cleanses us because of the order in which it was given. Jesus was the offering and the presenter of Himself as the unblemished offering, whose blood made restitution of all sin.

Leviticus 6-7:Hebrews 8

Good Morning Truth Seekers! This week we approach Resurrection Sunday, and remember was Jesus did through this Holy Week. Govern yourselves accordingly! Leviticus 6-7 establishes regulations for the sin, guilt and fellowship offerings. Additionally, it regulates the portion the priest shall have from the offerings. This is clear that God has provided for the priest through those in which they provided spiritual leadership and service. Most people see no responsibility to provide for the man of God. They fail to think about the consequence of robbing God. It in essence rob the man of God of provisions for himself and his family. When Gods says bring the tithe so that it will be meat in His house, is to support those who serve there, and who come with need.
Hebrews 8 establishes the concept that not only is Jesus a better high priest and from a different line. He also ministers in a new covenant that is superior to the old one. That covenant will be made in the hearts and minds of people, not of stone. Worship to God will come from love and adoration, not ritual and obligation. I hope you are worshipping God because of your love for him. When that happens nothing is held back from him; our life, our time, or resources become His.

Leviticus 4-6: Hebrews 7

Good Evening Truth Seekers! Happy Palm Sunday! Leviticus continues to instruct Israel in how to approach God. Sin requires confession and restitution. The punishment for sin is death. God has so graciously created the sin offering to substitute for the life of the offender. More importantly, sin requires us to appear before God and offer repentance and sacrifice something for his grace. Live stock was valuable. Unblemished signifies our very best for God. Put it together it adds up that we should offer God what means most to us. Our utmost for his highest. In order to approach God we need to be without guilt or holy. God who is holy and just will not over look our sin, therefore, he want s us to confess, acknowledge his authority and ask for forgiveness.

Hebrews 7 establishes that Christ came as a better high priest than Aaron lineage could provide for us who needed forgiveness. Melchizedek represents a line of priest that is higher than the Levitical line. Jesus is bigger and better than all who come in human capacity. He is perfect.

Leviticus 1-3:Hebrews 6

Good Evening Truth Seekers! It has been a wonderful day in the "Fellowship" We spent the morning cleaning up God's house. I was encouraged to see new members cleaning their place of worship. It give ownership, it says this is my church. True fellowship happens shoulder to shoulder on the mission field, in the battle and in service to the Holy One!

That is what Leviticus is all about; worship, service and dedication to a holy God. This book is to teach God people how to approach him. It begins with sacrifice, and sanctification of the worshipper by way of offering to the God who redeems. I hope you are experiencing those things in your life. 1-3 is the beginning of how to worship a God who saves.

Hebrews 6 is encouraging believers to mature. The truth is there is no stagnating. A saint is either growing or falling backwards spiritually. The writer warns that falling back is a disgrace to Christ, but to hold fast comes with assurance of blessings. What do you want for your life?

Proverbs 30-31: Hebrews 5

Good Morning Truth Seekers! Proverbs has been a rich sourche of energy and wisdom. I hope you have enjoyed it.

Hebrews 5: Introduces Jesus as greater than any other high priest. He is a high priest in the order of Mechizadek. Which means he greater than the Levitical line of priest and Aaronodical line, because he was before any of them. Furthermore, Jesus will reign as intercessor forever, and has no need for atoning his own sin. The writer will explain further, but hesitates because of the lack of maturity of his readers. He proposes that they should be mature enough to understand Christ's priestly significance.

I know this frustration, and it compare faintly to what God must feel about each of us. It is said that God loves us enough to accept us as we are, but too much to let us stay that way. I believe that transformation is expected of us to grow in the knowledge of God and his deity. Are you growing? Can you have a mature conversation about your faith? Is your understanding deeper than it was when you first believed?

Proverbs 27-29: Hebrews 4

Good Morning Truth Seekers! Read Proverbs for yourself there is nothing I can add to it.
Hebrews 4 is a warning against disbelief and an invitation to enter into the rest that comes with faith in Jesus. The invitation an warning comes in the form of, Today, if you hear his voice do not harden your hearts. It is essentially up to you if you believe or not. Therefore, God gives each person who hears the gospel the opportunity to chose life or death, rest or turmoil now and for eternity. We can enter into this place of peace with God because of Jesus who intercedes on our behalf. Will you approach the throne of grace and accept his offering to you and on your behalf?

Proverbs 25-26: Hebrews 3

Good Morning Truth Seekers! Hebrews 3 is straight forward. Christ is greater than the prophet Moses. Remember the writer is trying to encourage those converted Jews not to recant their profession. He is laying the foundation for a brighter future verses a dead past, meaning returning to the law of Moses. He believes the Jesus was the way to salvation and warned them against disbelief. His warning included the tragic end of those who died in the wilderness and cited that their sin was disbelief. They were scared of being persecuted and no doubt martyred. But the writer of Hebrews exhorts them to continue in the faith. Sometimes life is so hard that we question our faith. Christianity is not easy, but its promise is to be worth whatever struggle we endure. Don't quit! Don't give up! Don't be over come by fear, but live in the promises of God.
