Leviticus 6:2, Sins Against The LORD

• Leviticus 6:2 "When a person sins and acts unfaithfully against the LORD, and deceives his companion in regard to a deposit or a security entrusted to him, or through robbery, or if he has extorted from his companion,

• So, which was it a sin against “his companion” or “against the LORD”?

• Psalm 51:4 Against You, You only, I have sinned And done what is evil in Your sight…

• All sin is against the LORD! It’s always done by someone made in His image (misrepresenting Him)

• And usually done against someone made in His image.

Leviticus 6:2, What Is Sin?

• DLK’s definition; “All sin is a misrepresentation of the LORD’s character by someone made in His image, usually a violation of His Law.”

• The WESTMINSTER SHORTER CATECHISM says;• Q. 14. What is sin? • A. Sin is any want of conformity unto, or transgression of, the

law of God.• Jesus said in Matthew 5:22 "But I say to you that everyone

who is angry with his brother shall be guilty before the court; and whoever says to his brother, 'You good-for-nothing,' shall be guilty before the supreme court; and whoever says, 'You fool,' shall be guilty enough to go into the fiery hell.

Leviticus 6:5, Offering

• Leviticus 6:5 or anything about which he swore falsely; he shall make restitution for it in full and add to it one-fifth more. He shall give it to the one to whom it belongs on the day he presents his guilt offering.

• This word, “offering,” is one of the most important words in Leviticus. “The” “offering” is required to approach an infinitely holy God.

• NAS uses of this word, “offering,” in Leviticus more than any other book (170X’s).

God's mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God--this is your spiritual act of worship.

• Folks who reject God’s offering will suffer eternal fire.

Worship

• Carol McLeod said, “One of most refreshing daily exercises that you will ever participate in is the choice to spend time in worship. It is of vital importance that you understand that the time spent in sheer worship is going to enable you to withstand the storms of life.”

• Not one use of “worship” in Leviticus • Not one use of “understand” in Leviticus • Leviticus is more about “approaching” God “coming

near/ before, into the tabernacle,” come before the LORD, come forth [Leviticus 16:1, 22:3

Leviticus 6:11, Put On Other Garments

• Leviticus 6:11 'Then he shall take off his garments and put on other garments, and carry the ashes outside the camp to a clean place.

• Luke 9:29 …His clothing became white and gleaming.• Revelation 1:13 and in the middle of the lampstands I saw

one like a son of man, clothed in a robe reaching to the feet…• Revelation 3:4 'But you have a few people in Sardis who have

not soiled their garments; and they will walk with Me in white, for they are worthy.

Leviticus 6:17, Their Share From My Offerings

• Leviticus 6:17 'It shall not be baked with leaven. I have given it as their share from My offerings by fire; it is most holy, like the sin offering and the guilt offering.

• It is given as a gift, a share of “My offerings,” it is most holy, and a sin offering. Hmmmm?

• John 6:31 …bread out of heaven to eat… 33 "For the bread of God is that which comes down out of heaven, and gives life to the world.“… 35 Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life; he who comes to Me shall not hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst.

Leviticus 6:18, Touch And Become Consecrated

Leviticus 6:30, Burned With Fire

• Leviticus 6:30 'But no sin offering of which any of the blood is brought into the tent of meeting to make atonement in the holy place shall be eaten; it shall be burned with fire.

• The Passover lamb was to be;• Exodus 12:8 'They shall eat the flesh that same night,

roasted with fire… roasted with fire, both its head and its legs along with its entrails. 10 'And you shall not leave any of it over until morning, but whatever is left of it until morning, you shall burn with fire.

• John 1:29 The next day he saw Jesus coming to him and said, "Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

Leviticus 6:30, Blood “atonement”

• Leviticus 6:30 'But no sin offering of which any of the blood is brought into the tent of meeting to make atonement in the holy place shall be eaten; it shall be burned with fire.

• This word, “atonement,” is one of the most important words in Leviticus. The “covering” required to approach an infinitely holy God. There is only covering, blood, one way (John14:6, Isaiah 6:5, 59:2 “burned with fire”).

• Hebrews 9:22 And according to the Law, one may almost say, all things are cleansed with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.

• 1/2 of all NAS uses of this word are in Leviticus (45/88), 3X’s as much as any other book (Numbers has 15). There are no NT, NAS, uses of this word (1ea. KJV, Rom 5:11, 1ea. NIV Hebrews 9:5).

Leviticus 6:30, Blood “atonement”

• Leviticus 6:30 'But no sin offering of which any of the blood is brought into the tent of meeting to make atonement in the holy place shall be eaten; it shall be burned with fire.

• This doctrine of “blood atonement,” is so important, and clearly taught here in Leviticus, caused J. V. McGee to say that Leviticus “is the most important book in the Bible.”

Leviticus 7:5, The Priest Shall

• Leviticus 7:5 'The priest shall offer them up in smoke on the altar as an offering by fire to the LORD; it is a guilt offering.

• Remember we ‘switched gears” at 6:8. We stopped the instruction for “any man” to “Aaron and his sons”.

• Leviticus 1:2 "Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, 'When any man of you brings an offering to the LORD…

• Leviticus 6:9 "Command Aaron and his sons, saying, 'This is the law…

• This is important if you are a son of Aaron, or not.

Leviticus 7:6Every Male Among The Priests

• Leviticus 7:6 'Every male among the priests may eat of it. It shall be eaten in a holy place; it is most holy.

• Eliminating everybody else.• 1 Timothy 3:2 An overseer, then, must be above reproach, the

husband [masculine singular ] of one wife, temperate, prudent, respectable, hospitable, able to teach,

• Titus 1:5 For this reason I left you in Crete, that you might set in order what remains, and appoint elders [masculine plural ] in every city as I directed you, 6 namely, if any man [masculine singular] be above reproach, the husband [masculine singular] of one wife, having children who believe, not accused of dissipation or rebellion.

Leviticus 7:11-36, Priests Laws For Peace Offerings

• Leviticus 7:11 'Now this is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings which shall be presented to the LORD.

• These are laws for the priests for peace offerings, 5:14-6:7 covered it for “any man”.

Leviticus 7:15, Leave None Until Morning

• Leviticus 7:15 'Now as for the flesh of the sacrifice of his thanksgiving peace offerings, it shall be eaten on the day of his offering; he shall not leave any of it over until morning.

• Why not leave any of it over until morning? Refrigeration? Unclean?

• This is serious;• Leviticus 7:18 …eaten on the third day, he who offers it will not

be accepted…will bear his own iniquity• Matthew 27:50 And Jesus …yielded up His spirit…. 57 When it

was evening…58 This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate ordered it to be given to him. 59 And Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth…

• Leviticus 7:24 'Also the fat of an animal which dies and the fat of an animal torn by beasts may be put to any other use, but you must certainly not eat it.

• Animal fat could be used for “any other use,” what would that be?

• Candles, soap, grease (axel not cooking), and maybe treating leather.

Leviticus 7:27, No Eating Blood

• Leviticus 7:27 'Any person who eats any blood, even that person shall be cut off from his people.'“

• Very serious;• Leviticus 17:11 'For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and

I have given it to you on the altar to make atonement for your souls; for it is the blood by reason of the life that makes atonement.'

• Matthew 26:27 And when He had taken a cup and given thanks, He gave it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you; 28 for this is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for forgiveness of sins.

Leviticus 7:30, “before the LORD”

• Leviticus 7:30 'His own hands are to bring offerings by fire to the LORD. He shall bring the fat with the breast, that the breast may be presented as a wave offering before the LORD.

• This phrase, “before the LORD,” is profoundly important in Leviticus. The requirements to approach an infinitely holy God (face to face, toward the face of, in front of). There is only one way (John14:6, Isaiah 6:5, 59:2).

• !/4 of all NAS uses of this phrase are in Leviticus (59/259), twice as much as any other book.

Leviticus 7:30, “before the LORD”

• Leviticus 7:30 …He shall bring the…offering before [<06440> ים� .panim] the LORD ָּפ��ִנ

• Isaiah 59:2 But your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God, And your sins have hidden His face [<06440> ים� ָּפ��ִנpanim] from you so that He does not hear.

Leviticus 7:30, A Wave Offering

• Leviticus 7:30 'His own hands are to bring offerings by fire to the LORD. He shall bring the fat with the breast, that the breast may be presented as a wave offering before the LORD.

• Bible Knowledge Commentary says, “…The breast of the fellowship offering was to be waved before the Lord as a wave offering. Jewish scholars interpreted this as a sideways action, dedicating the offering to the Lord. On the other hand they regarded the “heave offering” (kjv; niv translates contribution, v. 32, and regular share, v. 34) of the right thigh (v. 32) as an up-and-down motion…”

KJV Leviticus 7:36, He Anointed Them, By A Statute

• KJV Leviticus 7:36 Which the LORD commanded to be given them of the children of Israel, in the day that he anointed them, by a statute for ever throughout their generations.

• mashach {maw-shakh'} מׁש�ח 04886• Meaning: 1) to smear, anoint, spread a liquid 1a) …to

Leviticus 7:37-38, Summary

• Leviticus 7:38 which the LORD commanded Moses at Mount Sinai in the day that He commanded the sons of Israel to present their offerings to the LORD in the wilderness of Sinai.

• This last paragraph summarizes Leviticus chapters 1-7. The instructions to the Israelites (1:1–6:7) and the laws and regulations to the priests, Aaron and his sons (6:8–7:36).

• Remember that Moses is still on Mount Sinai.

“a good thought” In Closing

• Leo Tolstoy said, “We regret losing a purse full of money, but a good thought which has come to us, which we’ve heard or read, a thought which we should have remembered and applied to our life, which could have improved the world- we lose this thought and promptly forget about it, and we do not regret it, though it is more precious than millions.”

• If this is true of “a good thought”, how much more so concerning missed evangelism opportunities?

• We should regret folks losing heaven and Jesus!

The End,Keep your heart fire

burning for Jesus
