God has provided a way to draw near to him through the blood, both on the earth and in the heavens.
Parashat Vayikra The Lamb of God Series goes deep into the work of Yeshua as the lamb of God and exploring the purpose of the sacrificial system. Part 1 is an introduction to the sacrifices, challenging some common thoughts regarding their purpose and laying a foundation for drawing near to God…
Would it be surprising to hear that sacrifices were brought with joy? And that the sacrifices weren’t about the death of the animal, but rather about the life that is in the blood?
