Day 8: 90-Day Bible Challenge
Today’s reading:
Leviticus 1:1-Leviticus 14:32
A thought or two:
Wow, as I read all of the sections about the various forms of sacrifice required for various sins it made me really glad to be a New Testament Christian. Under the Old Covenant (which was God’s means of being in relationship with mankind before Jesus’ death, burial and resurrection) there was a sacrificial system in place that was a type and foreshadow of the sacrifice Jesus would make as he himself was sacrificed for our sin.
The blood of bulls, goats, doves, sheep, etc. never removed the sin of the people; it simply covered the people’s sin until the next required sacrifice time. The blood of Jesus is powerful enough that it reaches across time as the fulfillment of the past, the grace for the present and the provision for the future! His blood doesn’t merely cover our sin, it washes it away!
Tomorrow’s reading:
Leviticus 14:33-26:26
